'''Layers in the TCP/IP model''': Remove stuff that's in the Internet protocol suite page, or that's already mentioned earlier in the page.
OSI model comparison: Call it the "TCP/IP model", that being the title of this page.
Line 40:
The two can roughly be related but are not a perfect match.
The first striking difference is the layer count.
The DoDTCP/IP model for the IP stack uses four or five layers (the link layer might be treated as a single layer or split into a physical layer and a [[data link layer]]) and the OSI model uses seven.
Strictly comparing names, the two "new" layers are the [[presentation layer]] and the [[session layer]]. Most comparisons lump these two layers with the OSI application layer and equate to the IP application layer.
