Hi. Where can I find information on how to read a protocol map? I understand the OSI model and what happens on each layer. I've also seen a few protocol maps, but was confused at understanding the flow of data on each layer in a practical sense.

For example, if I click on a web link, or copy a file from a remote computer, I want to look a protocol map and know exactly what was done and what protocols were used at each layer. At this point, I don't know. Please help.

Thanks.
