5 Internet Protocols
Introductio
n to
Internet
1. Understand Internet Protocol;
2. Enumerate and explain
different OSI layers;
3. appreciate the importance of
the OSI layers.
Have you ever thought
about how messages
gets from one place to
another each time you
are using your email
over the Internet?
Our language is very different
from the language that a
computer uses. So the
messages that we create need
to be translated from an
alphabetic text into an
electronic signal before they can
be sent. This translation is
handled in the computer by the
separate modules in the
communication protocol.
These protocols or
rules of conduct
usually
communicate with
two or more
modules. Therefore,
they are best
described as layers
in a stack of
These layers are the
application, presentation,
session, transport, network,
data-link and physical
layers. It is often referred to as
the OSI seven-layer model.

Processing is not
only a fact of life, it’s
also a mnemonic to
help computer
network technicians
remember the OSI
model and help isolate
problems when
troubleshooting
networks.
Even though the OSI
model utilizes the TCP/IP
protocol, the model was
originally designed by the
Open Systems
Interconnection group to
promote the OSI protocol in
its attempt to create a
standardized network
architecture for network
communications.
Unfortunately, though the
OSI protocol supported more
virtual addresses, its complexity
made the TCP/IP protocol the
more popular choice among
network technicians. Ironically,
the simplicity of the TCP/IP
protocol has led to IPv4 address
exhaustion and its newer IPv6
protocol very much resembles
the original OSI protocol in
complexity.
The Open System Interconnection
Reference Model (OSI Reference Model
or OSI Model) is an abstract description
for layered communications and
computer network protocol design. It
was developed as part of the Open
Systems Interconnection (OSI) initiative
APPLICATION LAYER
The application layer is the user interface that internet users interact
with to send or receive data through email, online games, peer to peer
file transfer, and other applications.
Common protocols:
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP),
User Datagram Protocol (UDP),
Sequenced Packet Exchange (SPX),
Name-Binding Protocol (NBP)
NETWORK
LAYER
The network layer seeks for
the best-known path to route
information to reach its
destination similar to searching
for an address on a GPS.
a. single mode
b. half duplex mode
c. full-duplex mode
d. half and full duplex mode
9. It seeks for the best-known
path to route information to
reach its destination similar to
searching for an address on a
GPS.
a. Application Layer c. Presentation
Layer
b. Data Link Layer d. Network
Layer
10. When the device can transmit and
receive information simultaneously,
such as in phone conversation.
a. single mode
b. half duplex mode
c. full-duplex mode
d. half and full duplex mode
