Lowest Layer Where Weather Occurs
Hubs and Switches
Switches are commonly known as "Layer 2 (Data Link Layer)".3550 Switches: These switches are working under Layer 2 (Data Link Layer) and it is forward the packets through MAC Address, but if we convert these type of switches into Routers it will function in Layer 3 (Network Layer) of OSI model as it's forward the packets based on the IP addresses.2950 Switches: These switches are working under Layer 2 (Data Link Layer) of OSI model only and it is forward the packets through MAC Address.
Switches are generally considered layer 2 devices, but many are capable of operating at layers 3, 4 or higher. Most hubs are amplifying the electrical signal; therefore, they are really repeaters with several ports. Hubs and repeaters are Layer 1 (physical layer) devices.
There are two characteristics that apply to every type of solid. It must have some structural rigidity, as well as a resistance towards changes of shape and volume
no
i would not wanna do your hw
Decisions on which port to block when two ports have equal cost depend on the port priority and identity. Non-root switches each have only one root port.
