networking, the data link layer is layer two of seven and corresponds to the host-to-network layer of the TCP/IP reference model. Its main aim is to reliably transfer data between two adjacent machines whilst efficiently detecting and correcting errors in transmission. Packets from the network layer are packed into frames and transferred to the network layer on another machine. Data link layer protocols respond to the network layer and issue requests to the physical layer. The data link layer in LANs can
flow of data throughout a network and this process is effective in its role due to the fact that the messages are sent only to the intended target. The media access control (MAC) is the identification that each device connected to the switch carries. By each device having individual IDs this increases the overall effectiveness and security of a network. Switches operate within the OSI’s layer 2. This is known as the data link layer. The data link layer is responsible for the transfer of data frames
to the applications. 6) Presentation: Converts the information. 5) Session: Handles problems which are not communication issues. 4) Transport: Provides end to end communication control. 3) Network: Routes the information in the network. 2) Data Link: Provides error control between adjacent nodes. 1) Physical: Connects the entity to the transmission media. In simple terms, the OSI model defines a networking framework for implementing protocols. Is defines seven levels to accomplish this.
specific layers. Each layer performs specific tasks relative to achieving communication. This paper will address the layers by explaining what they do individually and how they work together as a whole. Each OSI layer labels the piece of data that it processes before passing it on to the next level. The next layer could be either above the current layer of below the current layer depending on whether the computer is receiving or sending data. For purposes of this paper, the layers will be
seven different layers and is of course, theoretical. Meaning, this model may not be true in every instance, perhaps it can work without a counter part or perhaps not. The layers of the OSI are comprised of these layers: Physical, Data Link, Network, Transport, Session, Presentation, and Application (InetDaemon, 2015). The Physical Layer is the layer that is responsible for the hardwired connection, this is in charge of the cables and device layouts (Tetz, 2011). Without this layer no devices would
Auckland each are small local area networks and they are connected together to form a Wide area network and from there that is connected to all the warehouses in the country making an even wider WAN connection making it possible to receive and give data from anywhere across the country. LAN is connected to WAN with a device called a router. Over the last couple of years Network connection methods have been growing better and better so that the internet is easier to access and much more convenient

Thus, ISO deals with data communication standards while ITU-T are more on standard recommendations for telecommunications group such as Postal Telephone and Telegraphs (PTTs) and other common carriers.

Introduction In computer networking and telecommunications, Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a data-carrying mechanism that belongs to the family of packet-switched networks. When it comes to getting network traffic from point A to point B, no single way suits every application. Voice and video applications require minimum delay variation, while mission-critical applications require hard guarantees-of-service and rerouting. So far, only circuit-switched networks have provided the
performance is steady. Growth of the system has minimal impact on performance. Each node on the ring acts as a repeater, allowing ring networks to span greater distances than other physical topologies. Because data travels in one direction, high speeds of transmission of data are possible. When using a coaxial cable to create a ring network the service becomes much faster. Disadvantages: A failure in any cable or device breaks the loop and can take down the entire network. Response
which is designed to support both voice and data communications. It was initially developed to meet the needs of the Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network, in the late 1980s and designed to combine telecommunication and computer networks. It was originally designed for use in public networks, but now has also been deployed as a major backbone technology for private networks. ATM uses asynchronous time-division multiplexing to encode and transfer data in the form of cells or packets of a fixed
Chapter 2 2.1 The role of Network The role of the network is to improve data transfer and better documentation within the organization and beyond. User’s privilege can be determined through the network, an example is: determining what computer can access certain files on the network. These limitations can vary from user to user based on their role in the organization. 2.2 Peer-to-Peer, Peer-to-Peer over a client server Network and Client-Server P2P computing or networking is a distributed application
subnetting basics" September 23, 2011) Before TCP/IP came along machines had to be compatible at a physical level in order for them to pass messages between each other. Now the physical level has been abstracted and messages travel at a logical layer. The physical layer is still present but it is now a solved problem space allowing developers to focus more on the applications. This has become the real success story of TCP/IP.

Sensor Networks Communication Architecture The sensor field consists of sensor nodes which are scattered, all these nodes are capable to collect and give the data to sink. Here the data is sent back to the sink using the

The cyclic information speak to data traded intermittently between the field gear and the controller. Then again, the non-cyclic are data traded in the long run throughout the design or the field supplies diagnostics. The physical layer and the right to gain entrance
forward your requested Internet responses back to you. PPP uses the Internet protocol and is designed to handle others. It is sometimes considered a member of the TCP/IP suite of protocols. Relative to the OSI reference model, PPP provides layer 2 (data-link layer) service. Essentially, it packages your computer's TCP/IP packets and forwards them to the server where they can actually be put on the Internet. PPP is a full-duplex protocol that can be used on various physical media, including twisted
mentioned topologies. Bus Topology: In this topology, every device is connected to the same line of a cable. In this topology, data us transmitted only in one direction. Ring Topology: Every device is connected with the cable in the form of a ring. In this topology, data is transmitted in a sequential manner. Star Topology: In star topology,
which are systems that talk with other systems. This model has seven layers: the physical layer, the data link layer, the network layer, the transport layer, the session layer, the presentation layer, and the application layer. From this information, we discover that the OSI model is used only for its model (the 7 layers) and not as a network architecture since it doesn’t specify the exact services and protocols to be used in each layer. Next, the writer goes over the second type of network architecture
Each virtual network in a network virtualization environment is a collection of virtual nodes and virtual links. Essentially, a virtual network is subset of underlying physical network resources. Network virtualization proposes decoupling of functionalities in a networking environment by separating the role of traditional ISPs into InP’s (Infrastructure Providers) who manages the physical infrastructure and SP’s (Service Providers) who creates virtual networks by aggregating resources from multiple
Abstract The Physical Layer is the lowest layer of the Open Source Interconnect Model (OSI). It is the layer that deals with all the measurable, physical entities associated with the network. At this layer it is specified how much bandwidth (Baseband or Broadband) will be used in the transmission of data on the network. This layer also includes the physical topology (physical lay out) of the network such as: Bus, Star, Ring or Mesh. The Physical Layer includes these devices: Network Interface
Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) The purpose of formulating the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) had been to integrate the fragmented theory and research on individual acceptance of information technology into a unified theoretical model that captures the essential elements of eight previously established models (Venkatesh et al., 2003). To do so the eight specific models of the determinants of intention and usage of information technology were
