2.1 Standard Development
Organizations
the development of any standard requires
a process, and the more open, the better.
As a result, you will find that the
standards process is organized around a
set of stages,
which include any of the following:
Formation of a group that represents the
industry.
Request for a proposal (RFP) of a standard,
Request for comments (RFC)
Testing and modification of the proposed
standard.
Draft standards,
Accepted standard,

2.2 The OSI Reference Model
The most important networking model in use
today is the ISO’s Open Systems
Interconnection (OSI) Reference model.
This model divides network communications
into seven different layers and highlights how
each layer is used in the communication
process.
Each layer adds more information to data
during the sending process, while using and
removing that information during the receiving
process.
The OSI Model Layers
2.3 How Layers Communicate
All communication between two systems
requires that the data being transferred travel
down though the sending system’s network
stack, across the Physical layer, and then up
through the receiving system’s network stack.
While the protocols used within a layer must
be identical for peer devices, the protocols
used at layer interfaces are undefined and can
be changed
