Tonia is describing the process of correcting an error message to her classmates. She explains that if a message is not delivered, an error message will be sent to the application. The message will be re-transmitted or the segments will be pieced together correctly. What layer of the OSI framework is Tonia describing?

1. Network
2. Transport
3. Session
4. Data link

2. Transport

Tonia is describing the Transport layer of the OSI framework. In this layer, the error message is detected and an error message is sent to the application. The Transport layer is responsible for end-to-end delivery, error detection, and error recovery. In this case, the error recovery involves re-transmitting the message or piecing together the segments correctly.

Tonia is describing the Transport layer of the OSI framework. The Transport layer is responsible for the reliable delivery of messages between applications. In the scenario described, when a message is not delivered, an error message is sent to the application. This process of re-transmitting the message or piecing together the segments correctly is a function of the Transport layer, which ensures that the message is successfully delivered to its intended destination.
