WGU C172 Network and Security Foundations| 122 Questions and Answers with complete solution
TCP/IP - Known as Transmission Control Protocol/internet protocol and is a set of protocols used to connect network devices to each other Application Layer (TCP/IP) - TCP/IP layer that is responsible for the communication protocols between nodes, such as HTTP, SSH, and NTP Transport Layer (TCP/IP) - TCP/IP layer that is responsible for the end-to-end transport of data, such as TCP and UDP Network Layer (TCP/IP) - TCP/IP layer that defines the logical transmission protocols for the whole network, such as IP, ICMP, and ARP Network Interface Layer (TCP/IP) - TCP/IP layer that establishes how data should be physical sent through the network OSI Model - Known as the Open System Interconnection and it organizes the sending of data from hosts across a network, similar to TCP/IP Physical Layer (OSI) - OSI layer that is responsible for the physical connections of the devices in the network, such as hubs, repeaters, modems, and cabling Data Link Layer (OSI) - OSI layer that is responsible for the error-free delivery of data to the receiving device or node, such as switches, bridge devices, and network cards Network Layer (OSI) - OSI layer responsible for the transmission of data between hosts in different networks as well as routing of data packets, such as routers and switches
