Physical (Layer 1)
Network (Layer 3)
is most commonly known as the layer where routing takes place. A router's main job
is to get packets from one network to another.
Transport (Layer 4)
the process-to-process delivery of the entire message
is responsible for end-to-end error recovery and flow control. It ensures complete
data transfer
Session (Layer 5)
This layer establishes, manages,establishes,synchronizes and terminates connections
between applications.
Presentation (Layer 6)
The presentation layer works to transform data into the form that the application
layer can accept
Application (Layer 7)
supports application and end-user processes
his layer provides application services for file transfers, e-mail, and other network
software services
