TCP/IP Layers
Application Transport Network Data Link Physical (phys and data link used to be combined as "link")
Please Do Not Tackle Aardvarks
Explain same-layer vs. adjacent-layer ineractions
Same-layer is between computers.
Adjacent-layer is between layers on the same computer.
What are the two most common transport-layer protocols?
Transmission Control Protocol and User Datagram Protocol
Examples of TCP/IP Application Layer protocols
HTTP, POP3, SMTP
Examples of TCP/IP Transport Layer protocols
TCP, UDP
Name a TCP/IP Internet Layer protocol
IP
Name some TCP/IP Link Layer protocols
Ethernet, Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), T1
What are the three TCP/IP messages, and what layer are they on?
“segment for the transport layer,
packet for the network layer,
and frame for the link layer”
SNMP Ports
UDP 161 & 162
DNS ports
UDP 53
TCP 53 for zone transfers
OSI Application Layer
Layer between application and communications software.
Also defines processes for user authentication.
OSI Presentation Layer
Defines and negotiates data formats such as ASCII, binary, JPEG.
Encryption is defined in this layer.
OSI Session layer
Defines how to start, end and control covnersations.
OSI Transport Layer
Error recovery, flow control and other issues related to data delivery to another computer.
OSI Network Layer
What are the three main components
Logical addressing, routing (forwarding) and pan determination.
OSI Data link layer
Defines rules for when devices can send data over a particular medium. Also defines header and trailer allowing delivery.

Ethernet NICs transmit on pins …
Switches transmit on pins ….
(10 or 100 mb)
NICs transmit on 1,2
Switches transmit on 3,6
802.3ad
Link aggregation allows you to group Ethernet interfaces on the physical layer. Forming a LAG (link aggregation group)
Ethernet Types (header byte) for IPv4 and IPV6
0600
86DD
OSI Physical Layer
Defines physical attributes of the transmission medium.
PDU
Protocol data unit: OSI General definition for a packet/segment of data including a header, footer and encapsulated data.
