List of network protocols (OSI model)
open-in-new
<p>This article lists <a href="/facts/Protocol_(computing)/5uady7cB">protocols</a>, categorized by the nearest layer in the <a href="/facts/Open_Systems_Interconnection_model/oxN9Xhjz">Open Systems Interconnection model</a>. This list is not exclusive to only the <a href="/facts/OSI_protocols/MEEwuPY1">OSI protocol family</a>. Many of these protocols are originally based on the <a href="/facts/Internet_Protocol_Suite/KNkxtSpw">Internet Protocol Suite</a> (TCP/IP) and other models and they often do not fit neatly into OSI layers. </p>
