2-1 PROTOCOL LAYERS
In Chapter 1, we discussed that a protocol is required
when two entities need to communicate. When
communication is not simple, we may divide the
complex task of communication into several layers. In
this case, we may need several protocols, one for each
layer.
Let us use a scenario in communication in which the
role of protocol layering may be better understood. We
use two examples. In the first example, communication
is so simple that it can occur in only one layer.

Topics Discussed in the Section
Hierarchy
Services

Assume Maria and Ann are neighbors with a lot of common ideas.
However, Maria speaks only Spanish, and Ann speaks only English.
Since both have learned the sign language in their childhood, they
enjoy meeting in a cafe a couple of days per week and exchange
their ideas using signs. Occasionally, they also use a bilingual
dictionary. Communication is face to face and Happens in one layer
as shown in Figure 2.1.
Example 2.1

Figure 2.1 Example 2.1

Now assume that Ann has to move to another town because of her
job. Before she moves, the two meet for the last time in the same
cafe. Although both are sad, Maria surprises Ann when she opens a
packet that contains two small machines. The first machine can
scan and transform a letter in English to a secret code or vice
versa. The other machine can scan and translate a letter in
Spanish to the same secret code or vice versa. Ann takes the first
machine; Maria keeps the second one. The two friends can still
communicate using the secret code, as shown in Figure 2.2.

2-2 THE OSI MODEL
Established in 1947, the International Standards
Organization (ISO) is a multinational body dedicated to
worldwide agreement on international standards.
Almost three-fourths of countries in the world are
represented in the ISO. An ISO standard that covers all
aspects of network communications is the Open
Systems Interconnection (OSI) model. It was first
introduced in the late 1970s.

Layered Architecture
Layer-to-layer Communication
Encapsulation
Layers in the OSI Model
Summary of OSI Layers

ISO is the organization;
OSI is the model.

2-3 TCP/IP PROTOCOL SUITE
The TCP/IP protocol suite was developed prior to the
OSI model. Therefore, the layers in the TCP/IP
protocol suite do not match exactly with those in the
OSI model. The original TCP/IP protocol suite was
defined as four software layers built upon the hardware.
Today, however, TCP/IP is thought of as a five-layer
model with the layers named similarly to the ones in
the OSI model. Figure 2.7 shows both configurations.

2-4 ADDRESSING
Four levels of addresses are used in an internet
employing the TCP/IP protocols: physical address,
logical address, port address, and application-specific
address. Each address is related to a one layer in the
TCP/IP architecture, as shown in Figure 2.15.

 Physical Addresses
 Logical Addresses
 Port Addresses
 Application-Specific Addresses

Figure 2.15 Addresses in the TCP/IP protocol suite

In Figure 2.16 a node with physical address 10 sends a frame to a node
with physical address 87. The two nodes are connected by a link (a LAN).
At the data link layer, this frame contains physical (link) addresses in the
header. These are the only addresses needed. The rest of the header
contains other information needed at this level. As the figure shows, the
computer with physical address 10 is the sender, and the computer with
physical address 87 is the receiver. The data link layer at the sender
receives data from an upper layer. It encapsulates the data in a frame.
The frame is propagated through the LAN. Each station with a physical
address other than 87 drops the frame because the destination address
in the frame does not match its own physical address. The intended
destination computer, however, finds a match between the destination
address in the frame and its own physical address.
Example 2.3

As we will see in Chapter 3, most local area networks use a 48-bit
(6-byte) physical address written as 12 hexadecimal digits; every
byte (2 hexadecimal digits) is separated by a colon, as shown
below:
Example 2.4
07:01:02:01:2C:4B
A 6-byte (12 hexadecimal digits) physical address

Figure 2.17 shows a part of an internet with two routers connecting
three LANs. Each device (computer or router) has a pair of addresses
(logical and physical) for each connection. In this case, each computer is
connected to only one link and therefore has only one pair of addresses.
Each router, however, is connected to three networks. So each router
has three pairs of addresses, one for each connection. Although it may
be obvious that each router must have a separate physical address for
each connection, it may not be obvious why it needs a logical address for
each connection. We discuss these issues in Chapters 11 and 12 when
we discuss routing. The computer with logical address A and physical
address 10 needs to send a packet to the computer with logical address
P and physical address 95. We use letters to show the logical addresses
and numbers for physical addresses, but note that both are actually
numbers, as we will see in later chapters.
Example 2.5

The physical addresses will change from
hop to hop, but the logical addresses
remain the same.
Note

Figure 2.18 shows two computers communicating via the Internet.
The sending computer is running three processes at this time with
port addresses a, b, and c. The receiving computer is running two
processes at this time with port addresses j and k. Process a in
the sending computer needs to communicate with process j in the
receiving computer. Note that although both computers are using
the same application, FTP, for example, the port addresses are
different because one is a client program and the other is a server
program, as we will see in Chapter 17.

The physical addresses change from
hop to hop, but the logical and port
addresses usually remain the same.
Note

As we will see in future chapters, a port address is a 16-bit
address represented by one decimal number as shown.
