The application layer is a layer in the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) seven-layer model and in the TCP/IP suite that specifies the shared communications protocols and interface methods used by hosts in a communications network. It consists of protocols that focus on process-to-process communication across an IP network and provides a firm communication interface and end-user services.
Some Application Layer Protocols include:
- HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol)
 - FTP (File Transfer Protocol)
 - SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)
 - DNS (Domain Name System)
 - SSH (Secure Shell)
