OSI Seven Layer Model and IP Suite
OSI Seven Layer Model and IP Suite


Description:

    A layering model is the most common way to divid  a protocol suite to subparts and describe them individually. Layering help us to have better understanding of a protocol suite. The seven layers model, introduced by the International Organization for Standardization more than 20 years ago.


Layer                                    Responsibilities


1.Physical Layer               Basic hardware components for networks.i.e. RS-232 specification



2.Data Link Layer             Frame format, Transmitting frames over the net.i.e. bit/byte stuffing, checksum


3.Network Layer              Address assignment, Packet s forwarding methods


4.Transport Layer            Transfer correctness


5.Session Layer               Establishing a communication session, security, Authentication,i.e. passwords


6.Presentation Layer        Computers represent data in different ways (char, integer) thus the protocol need to translate the data to and from the local node.


7.Application Layer           Specifications for applications using the network, how to send a request, how to specify a filename over the net, how to respond to a request etc..


Internet protocol suite

      
      PPP(Point-to-Point Protocol)

      A protocol for  creating a TCP/IP connection over both synchronous and asynchronous systems.  PPP provides connections for host to network or between two routers, It also has a security mechanism. PPP is well known as a protocol for connections over regular telephone lines using  modems on both ends. This protocol is widthly used for connecting personal computers to the internet.

      SLIP(Serial Line Internet Protocol)

      A  point-to-point protocol to use over a serial connection, a predecessor of PPP. There is also an advanced version of this protocol known as CSLIP (compressed serial line internet protocol) which reduce overhead on a SLIP connection by sending just a header information when possible, thus increasing packet throughput.

      FTP(File Transfer Protocol)
 
      FTP enables transferring of text and binary files over TCP connection. FTP allows to transfer files according to a strict mechanism of ownership and access restrictions. It is one of the most commonly used protocols over the internet now days.

      Telnet(Networking Terminal)

            Telnet is a terminal emulation protocol, defined in RFC854, for use over a TCP connection. It enables users to login to remote hosts and use their resources from the local host.

      SMTP(Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)
 
      This protocol is dedicated for  sending EMail messages originated on a local host,  over a TCP connection, to a remote server. SMTP defines a set of rules which allows two programs to send  and receive mail over the network. The protocol defines the data structure that would be delivered with information regarding the sender, the recipient (or several recipients) and, of course, the mail s body.
    
     HTTP( Hyper Text Transport Protocol)
 
      A protocol used to transfer hypertext pages across the world wide web.
    
     SNMP(Simple Network Management Protocol)
 
      A simple protocol that defines messages related to network management. Through the use of SNMP network devices such as routers can be configured by any host on the LAN.
     
    UDP(User Datagram Protocol)
 
      A simple protocol that transfers datagram (packets of data) to a remote computer. UDP doesn t guarantee that packets will be received in the same order they were sent. In fact it doesn t guarantee delivery at all.
    
     TCP(Transmission  Control  Protocol)
 
      Like UDP, a protocol that enables a computer to send data to a remote computer. Unlike UDP, TCP is reliable i.e. packets are guaranteed to wind up at their target, at the correct order.
     
     IP (Internet Protocol)
    
     IP is the underline protocol for all the other protocols in the TCP/IP protocol suite. IP defines the means to identify and reach a target computer on the network. Computer in the IP world are identify by unique numbers which are known as IP address.
    
     ARP(Address Resolution  Protocol)
 
      In order to map an IP address into a hardware address the computer uses the ARP protocol which broadcast a request message that contains an IP address,  to which the target computer replies with both the original IP address and the hardware address.

     NNTP( Network News Transport Protocol)
 
      A protocol used to carry USENET posting between News clients and USENET servers.
