Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In the TCP/IP model, which layer corresponds to the OSI model's Transport Layer?
  • Step 1: Understand that both TCP/IP and OSI are models used to describe how data is transmitted over a network.
  • Step 2: Identify the layers in both models. The OSI model has 7 layers, while the TCP/IP model has 4 layers.
  • Step 3: Locate the Transport Layer in the OSI model. It is the 4th layer from the bottom.
  • Step 4: Find the corresponding layer in the TCP/IP model. The TCP/IP model also has a Transport Layer, which is the 2nd layer from the bottom.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the Transport Layer in the TCP/IP model corresponds directly to the Transport Layer in the OSI model.
