Understand the OSI and the TCP/IP models and learn how data encapsulation works
What you'll learn
- Describe the differences between the OSI and the TCP/IP models
Explain the functions of each of the seven layers of the OSI models
Explain the functions of each of the four layers of the TCP/IP model
- Understand how encapsulation works by adding protocol data units
- Understand how data processing works
Description
This is a short course that will cover both the OSI and the TCP/IP networking models in which we will discuss about the reasons that brought us to analyze these two.
- We will take a look at what a networking model is and why do we need it.
- We will then start comparing the two networking models and move on to analyzing every single layer of each of them.
- In this course you are going to begin to understand some additional protocols and concepts.
- Some of these will be treated in the section of the TCP/IP model, others will be treated in the section of the OSI model.
- These protocols are not pinned to any specific model, but they are rather mapped to the functions that need to be performed at each layer in each model.
