Case Projects
Case Project 1
Moe may not realize that without using the OSI reference model as a discussion tool, he probably could
not have learned enough about protocols to pass the Network+ eam! "earning about network operation
without this frame of reference would be nearly impossible! #lso, this knowledge often helps in
troubleshooting the network! If something goes wrong on the network, understanding the layer at which
the nonfunctioning element is associated can help you solve the problem!
Case Project 2
#lthough data encapsulation is often described in terms of the application, transport, network, data link,
and physical layers, it can actually occur at all layers! $ncapsulation is the process of wrapping the
header information from the higher layer with the header of the net%lower layer! &he five steps of data
encapsulation are'
i( data conversion at the upper layers )*,+,,(
ii( segmentation at layer -
iii( packet creation at layer .
iv( frame encapsulates packet at layer /
v( bit transmission at layer 0
Case Project 3
&he data link layer controls access to the physical media, however, it is not part of the physical layer!
&his is especially confusing since the M#1 address is also known as the hardware or physical address!
&he M#1 address is called the hardware or physical address because it is burned onto the NI1 and
cannot be changed! &he only way to change the M#1 address of a device is to change the NI1 card in
the device! &he M#1 address is more specifically operating at the M#1 sublayer of the data link layer!
&here is also the logical link control )""1( sublayer in the data link layer! &he ""1 is concerned with the
linking function between the lower layers and upper layer protocols!

Case Project 5
Students could draw two OSI models side by side! #n arrow could come down from the top of the first
model )source( to the physical layer and then back up the second model )destination( to the application
layer! In some way it could be illustrated that the data 3grows3 as it is encapsulated with information with
each successive layer as it goes down the first stack! &hen, the headers are stripped off one by one as
the data travels up the second )destination( stack until it reaches the user on top of the second model!
