The OSI model may seem irrelevant to newcomers since TCP/IP is the actual model that TCP/IP networks are based upon, however, the OSI model is a very important framework and learning tool …

The main difference between OSI and TCP/IP is that OSI model is a reference model while TCP/IP is an implementation of OSI model. OSI is a conceptual model that characterizes and standardizes the …

OSI as a protocol stack is deprecated. On the other hand, everyone I know uses the OSI reference model to articulate the interaction of protocols. The TCP/IP model has slight variants and has never …

As time goes by and the advent of ISO/OSI , network community divided the Link Layer into Physical and Data Link , and TCP /IP appear with 5 layers .

Nice chart, though I would update it to include the TCP/IP 5 Layer model as well. For anyone looking at the OSI model, the top 3 layers (layer 7, 6, 5) are mapped to the Application layer for the TCP/IP …

Hi MikeH, I think OSI is much more of theoretical, which TCP/IP were based. As far as i can remember, one advantage of TCP/IP is that it is more simpler (4 layers, i've read before on the OCG that there is …

I found this explataion: TCP segmentation occurs at layer 4 of the OSI model. TCP will take the data received from the upper layers and separate it into segments.

“The TCP/IP model on the right is a common method used today to refer to the layers formed by expanding the original model’s link layer on the left into two separate layers: data link and physical …

Hello Safraz, You and the study guide are correct. The original TCP/IP model had 4 layers, the updated model has 5. See the diagram below for how the old and new layers relate (The new TCP model is …

Please share some of the common problems/issues that occur in each layers [Lower layers- Transport, Network, data-link and physical] of the OSI model. For example. Network cable is …
