This chapter objectives: Define the application layer as the source and destination of data for communication across networks, explain the role of protocols in supporting communication between server and client processes, describe the features, operation, and use of well-known TCP/IP application layer services. | Application Layer Functionality and Protocols Network Fundamentals – Chapter 3 Objectives Define the application layer as the source and destination of data for communication across networks. Explain the role of protocols in supporting communication between server and client processes. Describe the features, operation, and use of well-known TCP/IP application layer services (HTTP, DNS, SMTP). Applications – The Interface Between Human and Data Networks Explain that applications provide the means for generating and receiving data that can be transported on the network Applications – The Interface Between Human and Data Networks Explain the role of applications, services and protocols in converting communication to data that can be transferred across the data network Applications – The Interface Between Human and Data Networks Define the separate roles applications, services and protocols play in transporting data through networks Applications – The Interface Between Human and Data | Application Layer Functionality and Protocols Network Fundamentals – Chapter 3 Objectives Define the application layer as the source and destination of data for communication across networks.
