In this lesson, learners will explore essential aspects of IoT networking. They’ll learn about edge devices and their requirements within networks, examine differences between the OSI model and TCP/IP suite in networking organization, and gain familiarity with different networking protocols.
This foundational knowledge will equip learners with a solid understanding of IoT networking principles applicable across various contexts and applications.

Learning outcomes

At the end of this lesson the learner will be able to analyze the essential characteristics of edge devices, including their requirements for data processing, connectivity, energy efficiency, security, and interoperability, to determine their effectiveness within networked environments and their implications for IoT system design and deployment.
At the end of this lesson the learner will be able to compare and contrast the OSI model and TCP/IP suite in terms of their organization of communication between devices, including the number of layers and the protocols they encompass, to understand their respective roles and functionalities in networking environments.
At the end of this lesson the learner will be able to recognize different protocols and categorize them into application layer and network layer groups.
