Locating computer systems on an internetwork is an essential component of any network system – the key to this is addressing. Every NIC card on the network has its own MAC address. In this example we have a computer with the MAC address 000.0C12.3456. The MAC address is a hexadecimal number so the numbers in this address here don’t go just from zero to nine, but go from zero to nine and then start at "A" and go through "F". So, there are actually sixteen digits represented in this counting system. Every type of device on a network has a MAC address, whether it is a Macintosh computer, a Sun Work Station, a hub or even a router. These are known as physical addresses and they don’t change. Logical addresses exist at Layer 3 of the OSI reference model. Unlike link-layer addresses, which usually exist within a flat address space, network-layer addresses are usually hierarchical. In other words, they are like mail addresses, which describe a person’s location by providing a country, a state, a zip code, a city, a street, and address on the street, and finally, a name. One good example of a flat address space is the U.S. social security numbering system, where each person has a single, unique security number. Source: CoolInterview.com

The layered approach of OSI model is to simplify the internetwork communication. In this approach the complete model is divided into 7 layers and each layer do a specific job and utilize the services provided by lower layer and provide services to upper layer.Due to layered approach overall model get simplified and network designer can concentrate on respective layer only irrespective of the layer above or below it as each layer communicate with each other using messages.

OSI(Open System Interconnection) is a model designed by ISO to make data communication smoother between systems/networks. OSI model has 7 layers: 1.Application Layer, 2. Presentation Layer, 3. Session Layer, 4. Transport Layer, 5. Network Layer, 6. Data Link Layer, 7. Physical Layer.
With the help of these layer data is spliited into packets or frames and vice versa and then transmitted to network through lowermost layer(Physical Layer). Source: CoolInterview.com

OSI the seven layer model consists of application,presentation,session,transport,network, datalink and physical layer .This model is layered because of the functionality each layer is providing number of protocols like SMTP,FTP,TFTP,RTP,ARP,RARP etc as per the IEEE standards. additionally RFC has different set of rules and regulations that imply that every individual layer should be segmented.Therefore the OSI model represents structured hirarchy of different layers Source: CoolInterview.com

OSI considered the primary architectural model for inter computing & internetworking communication.OSI model can be divided into two groups: upper layers (layers 7, 6 & 5) and lower layers (layers 4, 3, 2, 1). The upper layers of the OSI model deal with application issues and generally are implemented only in software. The lower layers of the OSI model handle data transport issues. The physical layer and the data link layer are implemented in hardware and software. Source: CoolInterview.com
