8、mmunicate with the session service.An SS-user is an entity that requests the services of the session layer.Such requests are made at session-service access points(SSAPs),and SS-users are uniquely identified by using an SSAP address.Figure 30-4 shows the relationship between the SS-user,the SSAP,the
9、session protocol,and the session service.Session(cont.)Session service provides four basic services to SS-users.1.Establishes and terminates connections between SS-users and synchronizes the data exchange between them.2.Performs various negotiations for the use of session layer tokens,which the SS-u
10、ser must possess to begin communicating.3.Inserts synchronization points in transmitted data that allow the session to be recovered in the event of errors or interruptions.4.Enables SS-users to interrupt a session and resume it later at a specific point.TransportThe OSI protocol suite implements two
11、 types of services at the transport layer:connection-oriented transport service and connectionless transport service.Five connection-oriented transport layer protocols exist in the OSI suite,ranging from Transport Protocol Class 0 through Transport Protocol Class 4.Connectionless transport service i

21、pathsData LinkThe data link layer provides reliable transit of data across a physical network link.Different data link layer specifications define different network and protocol characteristics,including physical addressing,network topology,error notification,sequencing of frames,and flow control.Ph
22、ysical addressing(as opposed to network addressing)defines how devices are addressed at the data link layer.Network topology consists of the data link layer specifications that often define how devices are to be physically connected,such as in a bus or a ring topology.Error notification alerts upper
23、-layer protocols that a transmission error has occurred,and the sequencing of data frames reorders frames that are transmitted out of sequence.Finally,flow control moderates the transmission of data so that the receiving device is not overwhelmed with more traffic than it can handle at one time.Data
24、 Link(cont.)“link”Data Link(cont.)The Logical Link Control(LLC)sublayer of the data link layer manages communications between devices over a single link of a network.LLC is defined in the IEEE 802.2 specification and supports both connectionless and connection-oriented services used by higher-layer
25、protocols.IEEE 802.2 defines a number of fields in data link layer frames that enable multiple higher-layer protocols to share a single physical data link.The Media Access Control(MAC)sublayer of the data link layer manages protocol access to the physical network medium.The IEEE MAC specification de
26、fines MAC addresses,which enable multiple devices to uniquely identify one another at the data link layer.Physical The physical layer defines the electrical,mechanical,procedural,and functional specifications for activating,maintaining,and deactivating the physical link between communicating network
27、 systems.Physical layer specifications define characteristics such as voltage levels,timing of voltage changes,physical data rates,maximum transmission distances,and physical connectors.Physical layer implementations can be categorized as either LAN or WAN specifications.Figure 1-7 illustrates some

29、evel 4 or Level 7 in the OSI model.For example,consider a service whose Domain Name Server(DNS)name is Service_A.com.Normally,there would be a server set up somewhere with that host name and IP address.With Layer 4 switching,the switch module itself takes ownership of the IP address as a VIPand has
30、multiple real server blades behind it capable of delivering the service Service_A.com,whose addresses can be arbitrarily assigned,since they are of only local significance.Virtual Servers VMWare ESXESX Server installs on the“bare metal”and allows multiple unmodified operating systems and their appli
