what exactly is the session layer. have you ever seen a "layer 5 problem" in your job
>>107067574Cookie and authentication stuff
>>107067574It's something from OSI.OSI doesn't exist anymore.
>>107067593but HTTP is layer 7
>>107067779I don't think HTTP ever ran on OSI.
>>107067779http is stateless by design, so it doesn't have a session layer
It's a model, you stupid fucking nigger. it doesn't depict the actual state of any given stack. If engineers adhere to the OSI model, you'd have a session layer. Most people use TCP/IP, even if they don't know that they do. And you can even create abominations that won't fit into any model.

>>107068442nobody cares about irrelevant boomer shit
>>107068442a protocol doesn't make the layer you nigger. It's a matter of implementation. Each layer only exists if it's explicitly implemented by the engineers. OSI model is strictly a suggestion.
>>107068486The OSI model is a description of ISO's competitor to the Internet, which is dead.

>>107068971cheersoh, and happy Halloween
>>107068693And most of the time that's all you need to know. But sometimes the thing you want to do doesn't work, and you won't understand why if you know nothing about the layers below it.https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2002/11/11/the-law-of-leaky-abstractions/
>>107068693but the guy who writes requests has to understand this shit. niger
I'm fimware dev and I deal mostly with data link, sometimes with network or physhical.Web weenies are not software developers.
>>107067574funny troll posting the solution to the ruse in the image itself. i write embedded software for 8 bit controllers and i still get people asking me to make code more resemble the osi model.session layer? i think session layer is the most translatable abstraction onto tcp.why arent you asking what the fuck presentation layer is?
>>107068693>i never understood any of the shit that is abstracted away from what i am using
Networking is dumb. That shit should be easy, like plumbing. Just turn on the tap and water comes out. Why make it more complicated than it needs to be?
>>107070921I like that tap analogy. Yeah that's how networking should be done: You connect to the internet and all kinds of packets come flooding into your machine.
