- Open system interconnection
- Mobile to nationalinternet_service_provider to localinternet_service_provider to enterprise server where the server is hosted
- OSI has 7 layer with distinct responsibility and protocols

- It’s alternate is TCP/ IP model with 4 layers.
- Inlinux_server 4 layers protocol for closely.
OSI steps
Step 1: When Device A sends data to Device B over the network using HTTP, an HTTP header is initially added at the application layer.
Step 2: A TCP or a UDP header is added to the data. It is encapsulated into TCP segments at the transport layer. The header contains the source port, destination port, and sequence number.
Step 3: The segments are then encapsulated with an IP header at the network layer. The IP header contains the source and destination IP addresses.
Step 4: An MAC header is added to the IP datagram at the data link layer, containing the source and destination MAC addresses.
Step 5: The encapsulated frames are sent to the physical layer and sent over the network as bitstreams.
Steps 6-10: When Device B receives the bits from the network, it initiates the de-encapsulation process, which is the reverse of the encapsulation process. Headers are removed layer by layer, until Device B can access the original data
