OSI Transport Layer Overview

The transport layer provides reliable data transfer through protocols like TCP and UDP, with TCP using mechanisms like port numbers, sequence numbers, and acknowledgments to establish and manage reliable connections, and UDP being a simpler protocol that does not guarantee delivery but is well suited for real-time applications like streaming media. Key functions of the transport layer include supporting reliable communication, multiplexing and demultiplexing data streams, and providing error checking.
