The document presents information about the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model. The OSI model describes how data moves through seven layers of a network from one device to another. It was the first standard model for network communications and was adopted by all major computer and telecommunication companies in the early 1980s. The seven layers are the physical, data link, network, transport, session, presentation, and application layers. Each layer has a specific role to play and the layers work together to successfully transmit data between devices on a network.
