Abstract
The Transport Layer is of great importance in the OSI model and is being considered by several standards organizations. The objectives of the Transport Layer will be outlined, together with the relationship between functions and protocols, leading to the concepts of protocol classes. The common functionality and the individual functionality of the various classes will be briefly described, together with the encoding principle.
