Protocol Architecture /Multiplexing
The Need For Protocol Architecture
Network Architecture or Protocol Hierarchies
- Interface
- Adjacent-layer interaction on the same computer
- Same-layer interaction on different computers
OSI reference Model
- Application Layer
- Presentation Layer
- Session Layer
- Transport Layer
- Connection-oriented
- Connectionless
- Segmentation and sequencing
- Connection establishment
- Flow control (or windowing)
- Network Layer
- Data-Link Layer
- Logical Link Control (LLC) sub layer
- Media Access Control (MAC) sub layer
- Physical Layer
OSI Layering Concepts and Benefits
- Standard Interfaces
- Easier to learn
- Easier to develop
- Multivendor interoperability
- Modular engineering
TCP/IP reference model
- TCP/IP Application layer
- TCP/IP transport layer
- The TCP IP internet Layer
- The TCP IP Network access layer
Multiplexing: FDM TDM
- Frequency division multiplexing
- TDM v/s FDM
Connection Oriented and Connectionless Services
- connection oriented service
- connectionless service
