What is the TCP/IP Model?

LAYERS OF THE TCP/IP MODEL
1 Application Layer - Where users directly interact with the
network.
2 Transport Layer - Manages reliable data transfer and
connection management.
4
APPLICATION LAYER - WHERE USERS
INTERACT
The Application Layer is responsible for the user interface with
network services. This layer allows users to access websites, send
emails, stream videos, or play online games.
This layer is the bridge between the user and the internet,
providing a convenient way to access network services and
applications.
5
TRANSPORT LAYER - TCP AND UDP IN ACTION
❖ The Transport Layer ensures data packets ❖ Two prominent protocols operate at this layer:
reach their destination reliably and TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) and UDP
efficiently. It's responsible for managing (User Datagram Protocol). TCP provides
data segmentation, error control, and flow reliable, ordered delivery, ensuring all data
control. packets arrive in the correct sequence.

INTERNET LAYER - IP ADDRESSING AND ROUTING

network and routes data device. Routers act as traffic correct destination.
packets to their intended controllers, directing packets
recipients. along the most efficient path
to their destination. 7
NETWORK ACCESS LAYER - HARDWARE AND PHYSICAL TRANSMISSION
The Internet Layer (Layer 2) adds the IP address of the sender and
recipient, enabling routing. The Network Access Layer (Layer 1)
converts the data into electrical signals and transmits it over the
network.

CONCLUSION
The TCP/IP Model is an essential cornerstone of modern internet
communication. It provides a standardized framework that ensures
seamless data transmission across networks. This model, with its
layered approach, allows for effective communication between
diverse devices and applications, enabling the interconnected
world we experience today.
