The document provides information about the 7 layers of the OSI model from top to bottom. It lists the name, mnemonic, key words, and description of the function for each layer. It also lists the 7 layers of the OSI model and indicates the associated TCP/IP protocol stack layer and encapsulation unit used at each layer.

Task: Fill out the following charts based on your knowledge of the OSI model. Explanation: Your understanding of the OSI model will greatly increase your ability to absorb and categorize networking information as you learn it.
1. List the 7 layers of the OSI model from the top to the bottom. Give a mnemonic word for each layer that can help you remember it and then list the keywords and phrases that describe the characteristics and function of each.
Layer # Name Mnemonic Key Words and Description of Function
Network processes to applications, such as file, print, 7 Application All message, database, and application services. Establishes availability of resources between two nodes. Data representation, coding (EBCDIC, ASCII), data transfer 6 Presentation People syntax, conversion, encryption, formatting, and compression services. Physical processing. Interhost communication. Establishes, maintains, and 5 Session Seek terminates connections between applications. End-to-end connections. Segments and reassembles data in proper sequence. Setup and teardown of "Virtual Circuits" 4 Transport To (connection oriented). Can ensure segment delivery with error correction, recovery, and flow control. Network/Host addresses and selection of best path through 3 Network Natural an Internetwork (routing). Encapsulates upper-layer information into "packets". Access to media. Adds frame header, which contains the hardware address of the destination device or next device 2 Data Link Dark on the path, to upper layer information. The Data Link layer is divided into 2 sublayers: 1) the Logical Link Control (LLC) and 2) the Media Access Control (MAC). Binary transmission signals and encoding. Electrical 1 Physical Places (copper), light (fiber), and physical connections and media (cabling) between network devices.
2. List the 7 layers of the OSI model. Indicate the TCI/IP Protocol Stack layer that is associated with each OSI layer. List the encapsulation unit used to describe the data grouping at each layer.
Layer # Name Encapsulation Unit or Logical Grouping
