Discuss allthe network devices used indifferent layer oftheosi model?
Physical layer = Hub, NIC, Repeater. Data Link Layer = Switch, Bridge. Network Layer = Router.
Router work on which layer?
Routers works in the network layer of the OSI model and choose the best ,shortest and optimized path to route the packets received from data link layer and requested by transport layer. BY Naghma
What are the devices used in session layer in osi?
What_are_the_devices_used_in_osi_transport_layerNetwork Devices Used in Transport Layer: The Brouter (Bridge router), Gateway and Cable tester work on the transport layer.for more about devices used in 7 layers of OSI model go: http://www.networktutorials.info/osi_layers.html
What is another term for a layer 3 switch?
router operates on Layer 3 and can be used as a switch
What is the difference between switch and router?
Routers operate at layer 3 of the OSI model while switches operate at layer 2. The data transmission form of a router is called a packet while in a switch, it is called a frame. Routers are mainly used in wide area networks while switches are used in local area networks.
What device connects a LAN to the internet?
A router can be used to connect a LAN to the internet. A router works on the basis of an IP address. Every router has built-in operating system known as IOS. A router works on the network layer of the OS model and it routes the data towards the optimal path. Router uses the header information of the packets and forwarding table to define the best shortest possible path of the data.
What application layer protocol is commonly used for secure remote access to a switch or router?
SSH
At what layer of the OSI model layer do IP numbers fall?
IP addresses are used primarily by layer 3 (network layer) of the OSI model for routine purposes.
Does a Local Area network uses a router?
The highest MAC address among the active interfaces of the network will be used. There will be no router ID until a loopback interface is configured. The highest IP address among the active FastEthernet interfaces that are running OSPF will be used. The highest IP address among the active interfaces will be used.
If all routers on VLAN10 have the same HSRP priority which router will become the active router?
The highest IP address among the active interfaces will be used.
On Which layer of the OSI model is IPv4 Addressing included?
Layer 3 i.e, network layer of the OSI model is used to IP addressing.
Which Router can we use on fiber network?
The highest IP address among the active interfaces will be used.
