Topic : Responsibilities of
Session and Application
layer
Introduction
The session layer and application layer
are crucial components of the OSI
model. They handle communication
sessions and end-user applications,
respectively. This presentation will
delve into their responsibilities and
interactions.
Session Layer Functions

The session layer facilitates dialog

control and synchronization between
devices. It manages the opening,
closing, and maintenance of
sessions. Error checking and
recovery are also part of its duties.
Application Layer
Responsibilities
The application layer oversees
the communication between
end-user applications and the
network. It provides services
such as email, file transfer, and
remote login. Data
representation and encryption are
also within its scope.
Session and Application
Layer Interactions

The session layer collaborates with the

transport layer to ensure reliable data
transfer. Meanwhile, the application layer
interfaces with the presentation layer for
data formatting and encryption.
 C onclusion
The session layer and application layer play pivotal roles in
establishing connections and supporting end-user
applications. Their responsibilities are essential for the
smooth operation of networks and applications.
