In the DoD reference model, which layer conforms to the OSI transport layer?
A.
Process/Application Layer
B.
Internet Layer
C.
Host-to-Host Layer
D.
Network Access Layer
Explanation:
In the DoD reference model, the Host-to-Host layer parallels the
function of the OSI’s transport layer. This layer contains the Transmission
Control Protocol (TCP), and the User Datagram Protocol (UDP).
* the DoD Process/Application layer, corresponds to the OSI’s
top three layers, the Application, Presentation, and Session layers.
*The DoD Internet layer corresponds to the OSI’s Network layer.
* the DoD Network Access Layer, is the equivalent of the Data Link and Physical layers of the OSI
model. Source: MCSE:TCP/IP Study Guide by Todd Lammle, Monica Lammle, and John Chellis
