Answer / abhishek

The answer is correct but the procedure is wrong. .
Never ever start from layer 1. . .
Always start from Layer 7 i.e Application Layer to Physical Layer. .
coz its not explain the layers. . its summarize teh steps based on OSI approach. . .

Answer / jitendra

Physical, Layer 1 : This layer conveys the bit stream -
electrical impulse, light or radio signal -- through the
network at the electrical and mechanical level. It provides
the hardware means of sending and receiving data on a
carrier, including defining cables, cards and physical
aspects. Fast Ethernet, RS232, and ATM are protocols with
physical layer components.


Data Link, Layer 2 : At this layer, data packets are
encoded and decoded into bits. It furnishes transmission
protocol knowledge and management and handles errors in the
physical layer, flow control and frame synchronization. The
data link layer is divided into two sublayers: The Media
Access Control (MAC) layer and the Logical Link Control
(LLC) layer. The MAC sublayer controls how a computer on
the network gains access to the data and permission to
transmit it. The LLC layer controls frame synchronization,
flow control and error checking.

.

Network, Layer 3 : This layer provides switching and
routing technologies, creating logical paths, known as
virtual circuits, for transmitting data from node to node.
Routing and forwarding are functions of this layer, as well
as addressing, internetworking, error handling, congestion
control and packet sequencing.

.

Transport, Layer 4 : This layer provides transparent
transfer of data between end systems, or hosts, and is
responsible for end-to-end error recovery and flow control.
It ensures complete data transfer.



Session, Layer 5 : This layer establishes, manages and
terminates connections between applications. The session
layer sets up, coordinates, and terminates conversations,
exchanges, and dialogues between the applications at each
end. It deals with session and connection coordination.

Presentation, Layer 6 : This layer provides independence
from differences in data representation (e.g., encryption)
by translating from application to network format, and vice
versa. The presentation layer works to transform data into
the form that the application layer can accept. This layer
formats and encrypts data to be sent across a network,
providing freedom from compatibility problems. It is
sometimes called the syntax layer.


Application, Layer 7 : This layer supports application and
end-user processes. Communication partners are identified,
quality of service is identified, user authentication and
privacy are considered, and any constraints on data syntax
are identified. Everything at this layer is application-
specific. This layer provides application services for file
transfers, e-mail, and other network software services.
Telnet and FTP are applications that exist entirely in the
application level. Tiered application architectures are
part of this layer.

If all of the other layers are working and have been
tested, then this is usually just a matter of applying
patches to software or reinstalling. Everyone probably has
experience troubleshooting problems in windows. Telnet is
an excellent tool for connecting to virtually any port to
check to see if the above layers are functioning properly.

Hi,

OSI is defined as Open Systems Internetwork.OSI layer is
the backbone of Networking and Networking concept is
dependent on OSI Layer.In OSI layer you will find 7 layers
on source side and 7 layers on destination side.

Source
Destination

Presentation layer Application Layer
data link layer Physical Layer
Network layer Session Layer
Transport layer Tansport Layer
session layer Network Layer
physical layer and Datalink Layer
Application layer . Presentation Layer

one can see these 7 layers on Source and destination.
without these 7 layers one cannot access application
layer.Among all these layers Network layers plays a vital
role as without network layer one cannot access
application .

when we enter http://google.com in browser it is a session
layer where we are calling network layer to connect to
htt://www.google.com and to communicate to external network
one requires a lan card which comes under physical layer
and to open session for the typed URL data is transported
from source to desination and viceversa and so defined
www.google.com is an application layer which is the 7th
layer in OSI architechture.Passing through all these layers
one can able to access application layer and can open
session for accessing www.google.com.

Put the following steps of encapsulation into the correct order: 1) The data is broken into segments to be organized 2) Frames are converted to 1s and 0s to be put on the wire 3) Packets are converted into frames 4) Information that users enter is converted into data 5) The segments are changed to packets to be routed A.) 4, 1, 3, 2, 5 B.) 4, 5, 1, 3, 2 C.) 2, 3, 1, 4, 5 D.) 4, 1, 5, 3, 2
