1-4 COMPARING TCP IP TO THE OSI MODEL Flashcards
What are the four layers of the TCP/IP model?
Link, Internet, Transport, Application
How many layers does the OSI model have?
Seven
What are the seven layers of the OSI model?
Physical, Data Link, Network, Transport, Session, Presentation, Application
Is the TCP/IP model more practical or theoretical?
Practical
What is the primary focus of the OSI model?
Theoretical reference model
In what context is the TCP/IP model used?
Real-world network implementations and protocol development
What is the primary usage of the OSI model?
Educational tool
Fill in the blank: The OSI model serves as a detailed _______ for understanding network functions.
reference model
True or False: The TCP/IP model is widely adopted in actual network communication systems.
True
True or False: The OSI model is primarily used in real-world network implementations.
False
What does the Application Layer in TCP/IP combine?
The Application Layer in TCP/IP combines OST’s Application, Presentation, and Session layers, handling high-level protocols, representation, and session management.
How does the OSI model differ in the Application Layer?
The OSI model has separate Application, Presentation, and Session layers, with more distinct functions for each layer.
What is the role of the Transport Layer in TCP/IP?
The TCP/IP Transport Layer deals with end-to-end communication using TCP and UDP.
What does the OSI Transport Layer ensure?
The OSI Transport Layer ensures reliable data transfer and correct data sequencing.
What does the TCP/IP Internet Layer manage?
The TCP/IP Internet Layer manages logical addressing and routing using IP.
How does the OSI Network Layer function?
The OSI Network Layer handles routing, addressing, and data packet forwarding.
What is the responsibility of the TCP/IP Link Layer?
The TCP/IP Link Layer is responsible for physical network hardware and media access control.
What does the OSI Data Link Layer provide?
The OSI Data Link Layer provides node-to-node data transfer and error correction.
What does the OSI Session Layer manage?
The OSI Session Layer (absent in TCP/IP) manages sessions and dialogues between applications.
What is the function of the OSI Presentation Layer?
The OSI Presentation Layer (absent in TCP/IP) translates data for the Application Layer.
How does the OSI Physical Layer relate to TCP/IP?
The OSI Physical Layer corresponds to the Network Interface Layer in TCP/IP, dealing with physical aspects of network communication.
