Very simple answer. The one thing that's always stressed with respect to
the OSI model is that many protocols were developed prior to the OSI model
being published. TCP/IP is one of those protocol suites.
The OSI model serves as a guide for understanding how protocols work, or for
how to develop new protocols or protocol suites. It is not a hard-and-fast
rule where protocols must conform to the definition of each individual
layer.
