Bill,

This slide is confusing, for sure. The reason I posted the link was the
comparison between the OSI and the TCP/IP models.

I looked at this page of one of the links you sent me. Notice
at the Internet and Transport levels it simply says, Application
data (datagram ?), TCP header, could this be a datagram, or
maybe a packet. Then at the Internet level, application data,
TCP header and IP header. Now according to rfc 1122, we know that -
o application data, tcp header
o application data, tcp header, and ip header.
Are both datagrams. Wow IMHO what a mix up. Unless you know the
name of the protocol and where you know (or think) it is in
TCP/IP, you're lost.
