OSI Model and TCP/IP
This networking model has seven layers and includes layers such as Physical, Data Link, and Application
OSI Model
This transport protocol is connection-oriented and guarantees data delivery by requiring acknowledgments from the receiving host.
TCP
This 48-bit unique identifier is assigned to a device’s NIC by the manufacturer and helps identify devices on a LAN.
MAC address
This version of IP uses 32 bits and is typically written in dotted decimal format like 192.168.1.1.
IPv4
This is the number of layers in the OSI Model.
7
In the OSI model, this layer deals with transmitting bits over cables or airwaves
Physical Layer
This transport protocol is connectionless, offers minimal overhead, and does not guarantee the delivery or order of packets.
UDP
The first half of a MAC address identifies the manufacturer and is known by this three-letter abbreviation.
OUI
MAC addresses work at this OSI model layer, while IP addresses work at the network layer
Data Link Layer
This layer of the OSI Model is responsible for delivering data packets based on IP addresses.
Network Layer
In the TCP/IP model, this layer corresponds to both the Physical and Data Link layers of the OSI model
Network Access Layer
Applications like video streaming and online gaming often prefer this protocol because speed is more important than perfect accuracy.
UDP
Each hexadecimal digit represents how many binary bits?
Four
This command-line tool can be used to find both the MAC address and the IP address on a Windows computer.
ipconfig
Encryption and decryption of data occur at this OSI layer.
Presentation Layer
This process involves adding headers and trailers to data as it moves through the layers to prepare it for transmission.
encapsulation
This application layer protocol translates human-readable domain names into IP addresses.
DNS
MAC addresses are typically written in this format, using either hyphens or colons to separate six pairs of digits.
Hexadecimal
This protocol maps an IP address to a MAC address on a local network.
ARP
The physical connection between devices, including cables and switches, is handled at this OSI layer.
Physical Layer
In networking, this is the name for a single unit of information transmitted over a network, including both data and protocol-specific information.
Protocol Data Unit or PDU
This default logical port is used for secure web traffic over HTTPS.
443
In hexadecimal, this digit immediately follows the number 9.
A
This type of IP address, created to solve the shortage of available addresses, uses 128 bits and allows abbreviation by replacing consecutive zeros with a double colon.
IPv6
TCP and UDP operate at this OSI layer to manage data transmission between hosts.
