What is main function is to examine packetes and determine where to direct them based on their Network layer addressing information?
This is the main function of a router.
What carries the network layer addressing information that can be interpreted by a router?
routable
Logical addressing and routing function at which layer of the OSI model?
Networking layer of the OSI model
Why is network layer associated with IP addressing?
The network layer uses IP addresses to determine whether or not to route a packet from one network to another. Since an IP address has two parts, the network id and the host/client id, this makes it a natural fit (IP addressing) for the network layer.
What is the purpose of using logical address on an IP network?
Logical Addressing on an IP Network enables selected devices to be part of Logical group for sharing information.
What is the main function of a network?
Identifying errors Compressing the data Deciding how the data is sent Addressing the data Deciding how to announce sent and received data
What is the purpose of subnet mask?
To determine the network or subnet address of an IP address
If your network hosts the appropriate automatic addressing service you do not need to manually configure TCP IP to participate in a network?
Yes, that is the reason network administrators use automatic addressing.
What is the main function of the Media Access Control MAC mechanism?
It provides addressing and channel access control mechanisms that make it possible for several terminals or network nodes to communicate within a multi-point network.
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.
Within a classful addressing subnet mask the bits indicate that corresponding bits in an IPv4 address contain network information?
the 1 bits
What are two ways that a network host determines the IP address of its default gateway?
The two ways are static addressing, which means typing it all in by hand, and dynamic addressing, which allows a server program on the system to automatically pass out all the IP information at start-up or at the time that object connects to the network.
