Fantastic video, small correction at @8:00 link layer, though the audio was correctly referring link layer, the diagram was pointing towards NW layer

These videos are some of the most helpful I've seen

Going to tell my kids this is the Bill Nye of computers

"Hands down 🙌, detailed explanation put in compact version ". Thank you .

With some of the newer protocols, like QUIC, there's some blending between the application and transport layers. Because the application layer typically handles encryption, and there is a need to encrypt certain parts of the transport format for better and faster security, these newer protocols have to "cross the boundary" so to speak.

This isn't all too unusual, however. There used to be two layers between application and transport that have pretty much disappeared. These are the presentation and session layers. Broadly speaking, there were no protocols that were ever really adopted for these layers because application layer protocols, like HTTP, FTP, SMTP, SSH, etc, were all very good at doing the job those other layers were called out for, so they eventually just disappeared into the application layer.

The OSI model is what describes these layers for those that want to dive into it a little more. Newer versions of the OSI model won't even bother showing the defunct presentation and session layers.

This is a masterpiece, and I love the animated diagrams. Would you mind sharing your tools and techniques?

[Ayanokoji-vu]

How do you make this kind of Stunning illustrations. Tell me Please 🥺 🥺
It will be helpful for me because I'm a teacher in college and I have to explain things to my Students briefly and your Animations are Amazing.🙏🥺

Thanks for the great summary, correct the Link Layer arrows 8:06

[HN-oqgf]

wow amazing how you put evyerthing together in 9 mins!

[MaryamTanha]

This is very useful! I was wondering if you could include some brief info about the physical layer as well. We usually teach students the 5-layer TCP/IP protocol stack.

[catsaregoofy]

in 8:17 a typo
There should be:
UDP Datagram
IP Packet

Hi!

My name is Mikhail, I am engaged in video editing and I really love your channel and the content that you create. I think it would be cool to try to work together. I'm sure I can add something new and make your videos even cooler. If possible, it would be great to discuss how I can help your project.

I will be glad to talk to you!

[suraj.mohapatra]

Your content is gold and I can't skip a bit even though I find your accent very hard to understand.

Не плохая связка. Процесс использования, такой же легкий, как у предыдущих

[alexmadnix]

I know that gRPC is a document exchange protocol based on HTTP/2. Does it correspond to the Transport Layer or Application Layer?

Another thing to compare the performance of gRPC with is document exchange formats such as JSON and XML? If not, should I compare it to transport protocols like FTP, HTTP, or SMTP?
