OSI Physical Layer
Layer 1. Electrical and mechanical definition of the physical system (cabling & connection)
OSI Data-Link Layer
Layer 2. Framing & error correction format of data
OSI Network Layer
Layer 3. Optimum routing of messages from on network to another
OSI Transport Layer
Layer 4. Channel for transfer of messages from one application process to another
OSI Session Layer
Layer 5. Organization and synchronization of the data exchange
OSI Presentation Layer
Layer 6. Data format encryption or representation
OSI Application Layer
Layer 7. file transfer/message exchange
TCP/IP Application Layer
Layer 4. Contains application, presentation & session layer of OSI
TCP/IP Transport Layer
Layer 3. Same as OSI
TCP/IP Network (Internet) Layer
Layer 2. Same as OSI
TCP/IP Subnetwork Layer
Layer 1. Contains data-link and physical layer of OSI
LAN Components Respective Layers - Hubs, repeaters, transceivers
OSI Layer 1 (Physical) - TCP/IP Layer 1 (Subnetwork)
LAN Components Respective Layers - Switches and bridges
OSI Layer 2 (Datalink) - TCP/IP Layer 1 (Subnetwork)
Lan Components Respective Layers - Router
OSI Layer 3 (Network) - TCP/IP Layer 2 (Internet/Network)
Lan Components Respective Layers - Gateway
OSI Layer 7 (Application) - TCP/IP Layer 4 (Application)
Lan Components Definitions/Uses - Repeater
Increase length and number of new devices that can be connected. “Signal Amplifier”
Lan Components Definitions/Uses - Hub
Increase length and number of devices by adding several segments. 1 device per segment. “Star Topology”
Lan Components Definitions/Uses - Transciever
Adapt different types of physical media. “Signal Converter”
Lan Components Definitions/Uses - Switch
Increased length and number of devices by adding several segments. When message is received, receiver address is analyzed and send “Star topology”. Switches also separate collision domains and optimize network communications as a results
Lan Components Definitions/Uses - Bridge
Connects two networks using same application layer but different lower layers.
Lan Components Definitions/Uses - Router
Routes info between networks using the same application layer.
Lan Components Definitions/Uses - Gateway
Connect two different networks of completely different types.
