Follow data through an internetwork

Preview:

DESCRIPTION

The figure presents a simple data transfer between two hosts across an internetwork. We highlight the function of each layer during the communication. For this example we will depict an HTTP request between a client and a server. To focus on the data transfer process, we are omitting many elements that may occur in a real transaction. In each step we are only bringing attention to the major elements. Many parts of the headers are ignored, for example.
