To the Public, for the indulgent ear it has inclined to a plain tale with few pretensions. To the Press, for the fair field its honest suffrage has opened to an obscure aspirant.

layer, and the function of each layer differs from network to network. However, in all networks, each layer clearly defines various data communication functions and logical operations.

Figure 1.1 illustrates a 7-layer network architecture. Layer (level) n on one computer carries on communication with layer n on another…
