Q

Encapsulation and Decapsulation

A

Data travelling down each of the OSI layers. At each layer a header and sometimes a trailer is added to the original data.
Once it reaches the physical layer it is sent across the network as a signal to the receiving device and Decapsulation does the same process but in reverse order.
