Common Mistakes

Confusing Physical layer with Transport or Application layers.

The Physical layer in the OSI model is responsible for transmitting raw bits over a physical medium.

Complete the code to identify the TCP/IP layer that corresponds to the OSI Network layer.

Computer Networks

In the TCP/IP model, the [1] layer performs routing and addressing similar to the OSI Network layer.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Mixing Transport and Internet layers.

The Internet layer in TCP/IP handles routing and logical addressing, similar to the OSI Network layer.

Common Mistakes

Confusing OSI layers with TCP/IP layers.

The OSI model consists of 7 layers: Physical, Data Link, Network, Transport, Session, Presentation, and Application.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Swapping the number of layers between models.

The OSI model has 7 layers, and the TCP/IP model has 4 layers.

Fill all three blanks to complete the mapping of OSI layers to TCP/IP layers.

Computer Networks

The OSI [1] and [2] layers correspond to the TCP/IP [3] layer.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Assuming each OSI layer maps to a separate TCP/IP layer.

In the TCP/IP model, the Application layer combines the OSI Session, Presentation, and Application layers.
