The open systems interconnection (OSI) model was created to standardize the rules of
networking in order for all systems to be able to communicate. In order for
communication to occur on a networking using different device drivers and protocol
stacks, the rules for communication must be explicitly defined. The OSI model deals
with the following issues;
• How a device on a network sends it's data, and how it knows when are where to
send it
• How a device on a network receives it's data, and how to know where to look for
it.
• How devices using different languages communicate with each other.
• How devices on a network are physically connected to each other.
• How protocols work with devices on a network to arrange data.
