The Answer: Transport. The Layer 4 Transport layer supports the TCP and UDP protocols in the OSI Reference Model. This layer creates an end-to-end transportation between peer hosts. The transmission can be connectionless and unreliable such as UDP, or connection-oriented and ensure error-free delivery such as TCP.
The following answers are incorrect: Network. The Network layer moves information between hosts that are not physically connected. It deals with routing of information. IP is a protocol that is used in Network Layer. TCP and UDP do not reside at the Layer 3 Network Layer in the OSI Reference Model.
Presentation. The Presentation Layer is concerned with the formatting of data into a standard presentation such as ASCII. TCP and UDP do not reside at the Layer 6 Presentation Layer in the OSI Reference Model.
Application. The Application Layer is a service for applications and Operating Systems data transmission, for example HTTP, FTP and SMTP. TCP and UDP do not reside at the Layer 7 Application Layer in the OSI Reference Model.
