Q

What are the three ways that LLC synchronizes transmissions?

A

Isynchronous - coordinating through external device’s clock
asychronous - devices look at their own clock
Synchronous - device share clock with each other

Q

What is the Network layer responsible for?

A

Logical addressing
Switching
Route discovery and selection
Connection services

16
Q

Packet switching

A

dividing data into packets, attaching headers and destination address

17
Q

What does a router do?

A

Forwards Packets based on logical addresses. Usually found in the Network layer

18
Q

What does the transport layer contain?

A

Protocols (TCP/UDP)
Windowing
Buffering

19
Q

Sliding Window Size

A

The amount of segments being sent at one time which increases each successful transmission + acknowledgement

20
Q

Buffering/Queue

A

Memories to store segments until bandwidth is available at the destination to send more

21
Q

What does the session layer do?

A

Setting up a session
Maintaining a session
tearing down a session

22
Q

What does the presentation layer do?

A

Data formatting (ascii)
Encryption

23
Q

What is the application layer?

A

Services that support applications and let’s applications know that certain services are available to those applications (ie printers
