Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is Transport layer.
Key Points
- The Transport layer is responsible for end-to-end communication and error handling between host systems.
- It ensures that data is transmitted across a network in a reliable manner.
- Protocols like TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) and UDP (User Datagram Protocol) operate at this layer.
- The Transport layer segments and reassembles data into a data stream.
- This layer provides flow control, ensuring that data is sent at a rate that matches the receiver's ability to process it.
- Error detection and correction mechanisms are implemented at this layer to ensure data integrity.
Additional Information
- The Transport layer is the fourth layer in the OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) model, sitting above the Network layer and below the Session layer.
- It is essential for ensuring that data sent from an application on one host can be correctly received by an application on another host.
- Common applications that rely on the Transport layer include web browsers, email clients, and file transfer programs.
- The Transport layer can also provide multiplexing, allowing multiple applications to use the network simultaneously without interfering with each other.
