Abstract
This paper reflects the current understanding of the OSI aspects of the layers 1, 2, 3, and 4 and their use for the interconnection of different- qulity subnetworks. The quality setting parameters of a given network connection are explained and methods are discussed on how to interconnect different-quality networks without decreasing the quality of the global network connection.
