MSI Model

A spin on the real-world OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) model the MSI (Minecraft Systems Interconnection) model aims to provide a framework that describes how systems communicate.

Layer 1 - Physical

Much like in the real world, the physical layer is the cabling that connects systems.

Examples:

• Network Cables
• Relay

Layer 2 - Connection

At this layer, physical addresses are used to address individual network cards. Also, packets must include a port number which must be open on the receiver.

Examples:

• Network Card
• modem API

Layer 3 - Network

At this layer, the machine adopts an IPv4 type address (32 bits in 4 octets) which is used to provide best effort delivery.

Layer 4 - Application

At this layer, the application becomes responsible for structuring data.
