The document describes the 7 layers of the OSI model. Each layer has a specific function: Physical layer handles transmission of raw bits of data; Data link layer organizes bits into frames and handles node-to-node delivery; Network layer handles packet transmission between hosts and logical addressing; Transport layer ensures reliable end-to-end communication through techniques like segmentation and error control; Session layer establishes and manages communication sessions between applications; Presentation layer defines data presentation formats and handles things like encryption and compression; Application layer allows direct user interaction with applications and network resources.
