OSI Model Data Unit Layer Function: Application

The document discusses the 7 layers of the OSI model from layers 1 to 7. Layer 1 is the physical layer which deals with binary transmission and physical addressing. Layer 2 is the data link layer which deals with frames. Layer 3 is the network layer which deals with packets and logical addressing. Layer 4 is the transport layer which deals with segments and end-to-end connections. Layer 5 is the session layer which deals with sessions between applications. Layer 6 is the presentation layer which converts data between machine-dependent and machine-independent formats. Layer 7 is the application layer which deals with network processes for applications.
