* * 6. Network Model ENG224 INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY – Part I 6. Network Model Why Network Protocol Models? Network communication is an extremely complex task Need cooperative efforts from all nodes involved A standard model helps to describe the task of a networking product or service Also help in troubleshooting by providing a frame of reference ENG224 INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY – Part I 6. Network Model Who define Network Model? Need non-profit making organizations ISO - International Standards Organization e.g. OSI, MPEG-1, 2, 4, etc. (http://www.iso.ch/) IEEE - Institute of Electrical Electronic Engineers e.g IEEE 802, IEEE 754, etc. () ITU - International Telecommunication Union e.g. V.34, H.323, H.324, etc. () ENG224 INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY – Part I 6. Network Model The OSI 7-layer Model All People Seem To Need Data Processing Away Pizza Sausage Throw Not Do Please OSI - Open Systems Interconnection Defined in 1984 and become an international standard ENG224 INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY – Part I 6. Network Model Layered Architecture Layering specifies different level of functions and services Each layer works with the layer below and above it Each layer provides services to next layer Shield the upper layer from the details of actual implementation ENG224 INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY – Part I 6. Network Model Relationship of OSI layers Virtual Communication Physical Communication ENG224 INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY – Part I 6. Network Model Protocols in a layered architecture Network communication is possible only if machines speaking the same languages (protocols) Since each layer work independently, each layer speaks different languages (protocols) Lead to the concept of a Protocol Stack Network communication is possible only if the Protocol Stacks on two machines are the same ENG224 INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY – Part I 6. Network Model To identify the language (protocol) of each layer, identifier (header and trailer) are added to data ENG224 INFORMATIO
