The seven layers
by ychaouche from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6H2WM)
Dear LQ,
I wasn't satisfied with the search results about real protocols for each layer.
For example,
some sources claim that JPEG and GIF are network protocols?
Anyway, here's what I gathered so far:
1. Physical (wifi, ethernet, bluetooth)
2. Link (PPP, ATM, wifi, ethernet)
3. Network (IP, ICMP, ARP)
4. Transport (TCP, UDP, STCP)
5. Session (RPC, NetBios)
6. Presentation (TLS)
7. Application (HTTP/DNS)
Could anyone confirm these protocols are on the right layers?
(some of them are duplicated,
for example ethernet and wifi span two layers)
