ICND 1 - 2.Models Flashcards
What is data called at the Application, Presentation, and Session layers?
data
What is the data called at the Transport layer?
segments
What is the data called at the Network layer?
packets
What is the data called at the Data Link layer?
frames
What is the data called at the Physical layer?
bits
What are the names of the seven layers of the OSI model?
L7 Application L6 PresentationL5 SessionL4 TransportL3 NetworkL2 Data LinkL1 Physical
Name some protocols and services that run at L7 (Application Layer)?
Email proocols SMTP and Pop3TelnetHTTPFile Transfer Protocol (FTP)*Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
What are the 4 primary tasks that the Presentation layer are concerned with?
- Compatibility with the OS2. Proper encapsulation of data for network transmission3. Data formatting (ascii, binarry)4. Data encryption, compression, and translation.
What are some of the file types used at the Presentation layer?
JPEG, ASCII, GIF, MPEG, MIDI, EBCDIC, and TIFF.
What is the main job of the Session layer?
Manager of the two-way communication between two remote hosts.
What is the pupose of the Transport Layer?
To establish a logical end-to-end connection between two systems, segment data received from the upper layers of the OSI Model, and to make sure the data gets to the destination in the correct order and free of errors.
At the Transport Layer, what are the two methods of transporting data?
- Connection-oriented - referring to TCP2. Connectionless - referring to UDP
What is the Network Layer often called?
“The Routing Layer”
What are four major specifications that run on the Data Link Layer?
- Ethernet2. High Data Link Control (HDLC)3. Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)4. Frame Relay
How does the data link layer perform error detection?
Through something called the “Frame Check Sequence”.
The Data link layer performs error recovery. True/False
False - It performs error detection, not error recovery
What are two names that MAC addresses are sometimes called?
Hardware and physical addresses. This is because a MAC address is physically burned into the Network Interface Card (NIC).
What is another name for the MAC address?
Burned-in Address (BIA)
Which layer do switches and bridges operate at?
Data Link Layer (L2)
What is the difference between Error Detection and Error Recovery.
Error detection - detecting the errorError recovery - fixing the error.
What does the data link layer use to detect errors?
Frame Check Sequence (FCS)
What is the combination of data and layer specific header called?
Protocol Data Unit (PDU)
The combination of data and L7 header information is called an L7 PDU. What is the data and L6 header informatino called?
L6 PDU, L5 PDU etc…
After data is successfully transmitted by the Physical layer to the remote location and the data begins to travel back up the OSI model. Can the L3 layer remove any other layers header?
No, only the same layer can remove its layers header. L3 to L3, L5 to L5, etc..
