Network Fundamentals
During TCP/IP communication between two network hosts, information is encapsulated on the sending host and decapsulated on the receiving host using the OSI model. Match the information format on the left with the appropriate layer of the OSI model on the right.
1. packets - network layer 2. segements - transport layer 3. frames - data link layer 4. bits - physical layer
Match each networking function or device on the left with its associated OSI model layer on the right.
Application layer-HTTP Presentation layer-Encapsulation Session layer-Session ID number Transport layer-Port number Network layer-Router Data Link layer-Switch Physical layer-Modem
Which of the following tasks is associated with the Session layer? Answer IP address assignment Connection establishment Port number assignment Data block breakdown
Connection establishment
What is the basic purpose of the OSI Physical layer? Answer Maintain a list of known networks and neighboring routers. Define when devices have access to the LAN. Coordinate rules for sending and receiving electrical signals. Define how physical network devices are identified on a network.

In the OSI model, which of the following functions are performed at the Application layer? (Select two.) Device control for data transmission rates. Integration of network functionality into the host operating system. Enabling of communication between network clients and services. Communication setup, maintenance, and teardown. Standard setting for sending and receiving signals.
Integration of network functionality into the host operating system. Enabling of communication between network clients and services.
The Data Link layer of the OSI model is comprised of two sublayers. Which two are they? Answer MAC CRC ARP PAN LLC

Match each layer of the TCP/IP model on the left with the corresponding layer of the OSI model on the right. Each option on the left can be used more than once.
Presentation layer- Application Data Link layer- Network Application layer- Application Session layer-Application Network layer-Internetwork Transport layer-Transport
Listen to exam instructions In the OSI model, what is the primary function of the Network layer? Ensure that packets are delivered with no loss or duplication. Enable communication between network clients and services. Transmit data frames. Route messages between networks.
Route messages between networks.
Which OSI model layer is responsible for guaranteeing reliable message delivery? Session Transport Data Link Application
Transport
