as far as I remember from my Uni days OSI is a way of using different Network protocols together such as appletalk and TCP/IP etc

 

Network layer is basicly repsonsible for getting data from source to destination... this is usually done using the IP protocol.

 

Sorry to be a bit slow on the uptake as i have just starting out on this. Is the answer yes or no?

Regards

 

Have a look at this link from WIKI it explains about OSI layer and how TCP/IP's took over from it!

 

The Network Layer is responsible for routing and addressing. The different protocols of the OSI Model each play a part in the communication process and work together.

Here's another Wiki link with a little more information on the Network Layer and how it works.
