Answer / shahin

Application layer: It is the layer 7th of OSI model. Its
provide user interface that user used to interact with
software application (IE, Opera).

Apart from this, the other key functions performed by
application layer is -
a) Identify & Establish Communication.

c) Synchronize Communication.

Suppose u want to access www. yahoo.com. To accomplish this
task, u write www.yahoo.com on address bar. Now Internet
Explorer with the help of protocol give u the necessary
interface to access Yahoo web page.

U can take another example, Windows Media player. We can
play music thro Win Media player. At this time, application
layer privide necessary interface to play a song thro media
player.


a) Identify & Establish Communication - Application

application layer determine wheater its a valid URL or not.
If yes, its establish a communication with server where
this page reside.

b)Determine Resource Availability: Application must
determine wheather the sufficient network resources are

application layer.

Communication between ur system n web server need certain
help, which is provided by application layer.
