Edvin Milkunic CompTIA N+ English 8 cards

Cards in this deck (8)

  1. 1OSI ModelA model for understanding and developing computer-to-computer communication,
    it divides networking functions among seven layers:
    1.Physical, 2.Data Link, 3.Network, 4.Transport, 5.Session, 6.Presentation, and 7.Application.
  2. 2Layer 1Physical layer
    - responsible for taking 1s and 0s and encoding them into a digital signal for transmission on the network segment.
    - Hubs and repeaters see only bits
  3. 3Layer 2Data Link
    - provides framing and placing of data on the network medium.
    - switches and bridges understand and make decisions based on Layer 2 addresses
  4. 4Layer 3Network Layer
    - Provides logical network addressing and routing through an internetwork
    - Routers deal with Layer 3 addresses
  5. 5Layer 4Transport Layer
    - Provides segmentation, sequencing, and virtual circuits.
  6. 6Layer 5Session Layer
    - upper layer
    - responsible for communicating from a user interface to an application
  7. 7Layer 6Presentation
  8. 8Layer 7Application
