1. The physical control layer: This is the level of electronic connections, signal transmission and data in raw binary form.

2. The data-link layer: Is the level at which data is transmitted in units using suitable protocols to control and check correct transmission. The units of data are called “Frames” i.e. synchronously transmitted characters or synchronously transmitted blocks of characters,. sing, error contr

3. The network layer: Is the level that provides he control between adjacent sending and receiving points in the network. The sending and receiving points that are able to switch transmission are “nodes” in the network.

4. The transport layer: Is the level that handles an end-to-end service between the host computers it deals with address and regulated data transfers.

8

5. The session layer: Is the level handle the establishment of connections between hosts and the management of the dialog. Messages crated at this level are addressed by the transport layer and split into packets at the network layer.

6. The presentation layer: Is the level that handles the standard forms for presenting data e.g. the layouts used for VDU displays. 7. The application layer: Is the level that the user has control over in determining what data is to be transmitted and how it is to be sent or received.
