The OSI model classifies and organizes the tasks that hosts perform to prepare data for transport across the network. You should be familiar with the OSI model because it is the most widely used method for understanding and talking about network communications. However, remember that it is only a theoretical model that defines standards for programmers and network administrators, not a model of actual physical layers.
Using the OSI model to discuss networking concepts has the following advantages:
However, you must remember the following limitations of the OSI model.
To help remember the layer names of the OSI model, try the following mnemonic devices:
Layer |
Name |
Mnemonic |
Mnemonic |
Layer 7 |
Application |
Away |
All |
Layer 6 |
Presentation |
Pizza |
People |
Layer 5 |
Session |
Sausage |
Seem |
Layer 4 |
Transport |
Throw |
To |
Layer 3 |
Network |
Not |
Need |
Layer 2 |
Data Link |
Do |
Data |
Layer 1 |
Physical |
Please |

Have some fun and come up with your own mnemonic for the OSI model, but stick to just one so you don't get confused.
