Lab 2.3.6 OSI Model and TCP/IP Model: Objective

The document describes the OSI and TCP/IP models and how their layers relate. It provides a table mapping the 7 layers of the OSI model to the 4 layers of TCP/IP, listing protocols and utilities used at each TCP/IP layer like IP, TCP, UDP, HTTP, and DNS.

Lab 2.3.

6 OSI Model and TCP/IP Model

Objective
• Describe the four layers of the TCP/IP model.
• Relate the seven layers of the OSI model to the four layers of the TCP/IP model.
• Name the primary TCP/IP protocols and utilities that operate at each layer.

Background
This lab will help to develop a better understanding of the seven layers of the OSI model.
Specifically as they relate to the most popular functioning networking model in existence, the TCP/IP model.
The Internet is based on TCP/IP. TCP/IP has become the standard language of networking. However, the
seven layers of the OSI model are the ones most commonly used to describe and compare networking
software and hardware from various vendors. It is very important to know both models and be able to relate
or map the layers of one to the other. An understanding of the TCP/IP model and the protocols and utilities
that operate at each layer is essential when troubleshooting. Steps
1. Use the table below to compare the OSI layers with the TCP/IP protocol stack. In column two,
indicate the proper name for each of the seven layers of the OSI model corresponding to the
layer number. List the TCP/IP layer number and its correct name in the next two columns. Also
list the term used for the encapsulation units, the related TCP/IP protocols and utilities that
operate at each TCP/IP layer. More than one OSI layer will be related to certain TCP/IP layers.
