OSI REFERENCE MODEL:
The Open Systems Interconnection model (OSI model) was a product of the Open SystemsInterconnection effort at the International Organization for Standardization. It is a way of sub-dividing a communications system into smaller parts called layers. Similar communication functions are grouped into logical layers. A layer provides services to its upper layer while receiving services from the layer below.

NETWINZ is a Network learning software tool that aids in learning various layers of the OSI Network Model.
NETWINZ is not a simulator and requires at least two pc to perform the experiments. NETWINZ emulates the Layers of OSI Model to demonstrate the concepts of each layer.
The following are the various experiments that can be conducted in Netwinz
• Physical Layer
1.Study of Error Control Mechanisms - CRC and LRC
2.Study of Framing Sequence – Character Stuffing

• Data Link Layer
1.Study of Stop and Wait Protocol
2.Study of Sliding Window Protocol
• Network Layer
1.Link State

2.Distance Vector

3.Shortest path

4.Study of Network Throughput.

5.Study of Slotted Aloha Protocol

• Transport Layer
1.Study of TCP Protocol.

2.Study of UDP Protocols. 
• Sessions Layer
1.Study of A Simple Session with User Login and Timeout Features

• Presentation Layer
1.DES Algorithm

2.Blowfish Algorithm

3.XOR Encryption

4.Substitution Cipher

5.Transposition Cipher

• Application Layer
1.Study of Http Server
KEY FEATURES:
•NO SIMULATION. NETWINZ works on actual Network.
•Attractive and User Friendly Graphical User Interface.
•C Source Codes for in depth understanding of the working concepts. These can be compiled and run in any standard C compilers.
•Attractive tutorial that describe the usage of the software tool.
•User Manuals.
