This document summarizes the seven layers of the OSI model from top to bottom: 1. The Application layer identifies communication partners and considers user authentication and privacy. 2. The Presentation layer converts data between different formats. 3. The Session layer sets up, coordinates, and terminates conversations and exchanges between applications.

This is the layer at which communication partners


are identified, quality of service is identified, user
authentication and privacy are considered, and any
constraints on data syntax are identified. (This Application
layer is not the application itself, although some
applications may perform application layer
functions.)
This is a layer, usually part of an operating system,
that converts incoming and outgoing data from one
presentation format to another (for example, from a Presentation
text stream into a popup window with the newly
arrived text). Sometimes called the syntax layer.
This layer sets up, coordinates, and terminates
conversations, exchanges, and dialogs between the Session
applications at each end. It deals with session and
connection coordination.
This layer manages the end-to-end control (for
example, determining whether all packets have Transport
arrived) and error-checking. It ensures complete
data transfer.
This layer handles the routing of the data (sending
it in the right direction to the right destination on
outgoing transmissions and receiving incoming Network
transmissions at the packet level). The network
layer does routing and forwarding
This layer provides synchronization for the physical
level and does bit-stuffing for strings of 1's in Data Link
excess of 5. It furnishes transmission protocol
knowledge and management.
This layer conveys the bit stream through the
network at the electrical and mechanical level. It Physical
provides the hardware means of sending and
receiving data on a carrier.
