Q # 04 : What is the difference between Network layer Delivery and Transport layer Delivery?
=======================================================================
ANS : Protocol layers may be defined in such a way that the communications within a layer is
independent of the operation of the layer being used.
It is the process in which two or more devices communicating within the same layer.
=======================================================================
Q # 06 : How does information get passed from one layer to the next in internet model?
ANS : At the physical layer, communication is direct between devices. At the higher layers,
communication must move down though the layers on sending device, over to receiving device,
and then back up through the layers. Each layer in the sending device adds its own information to
the message it receives from the layer just above it and passes the whole package to the layer just
below it. At layer the entire package is converted to a form that can be transmitted to the receiving

device. At the receiving machine, the message is unwrapped layer by layer, with each process
receiving and removing the data meant for it.
======================================================================
Q # 08 : what are the concerns of the physical layer in the internet model?
ANS : Physical layer convert information into bits over physical medium. Also perform
synchronization of bit
======================================================================
Q # 09 : what are the responsibilities of the Data link layer in the internet model?
ANS : Data link controls data rate and providing the sender and receiver physical addresses.
And also perform bits framing.
=======================================================================
Q # 10 : What are the responsibilities of the network layer in the internet model?
ANS : Network layer perform Source to destination delivery of packets across multiple linkss so its
host to host delivery, logical addressing and routing.
=======================================================================
Q # 11 : What are the responsibilities of the Transport layer in the internet model?
ANS : Transport layer is the process to process delivery means send entire message from source to
destination.
It controls flow of data and error.
=======================================================================
Q # 13 : Name some services provided by the application layer in the internet model.
=======================================================================
ANS : ISO is the organization (International Standards Organization ) and OSI (Open Systems
Interconnection) is its model.
=======================================================================
Data Communication
a. Route determination
b. Flow Control
c. Interface to transmission media
d. Provides access for the end user
=======================================================================
Q # 17: Match the following to one or more layers of the OSI model:
=======================================================================
=======================================================================
=======================================================================
Q # 26 : Give some advantages and disadvantages of combining the session, presentation and
application layer in the OSI model into one single application layer in the internet model.
=======================================================================
Q # 29 : There are several transport layer models proposed in the OSI model. Find all of them.
Explain the differences between them.
ANS :
