What is found on a datalink layer header?
The data link layer header contains the destination and source of information of the original frame and device sending information. You will also find that it contains the information of the device to receive it.
Which OSI layer is responsible for adding a header that includes routing information?
The routing process occurs in the 3rd OSI layer (network layer) routing protocols use network address (IP address in TCP/IP) to chose the correct path to the destination. ps: You can also have routing protocols on other layers sometimes (application layer in p2p routing) but this is something completely different.
In which of the following would be found in a data link layer header?
The data link layer header contains the source's physical address. It refers the address that is found in the Network Interface Card.
What can be identified by the network layer header?
destination host address
Which OSI layer header contains the address of a destination host that is on another?
Network Layer
Why header and trailer is present in network layers?
HEADERS: It is a part of an information structure that precedes and identifies the information that follows,such as block of bytes in communication.TRAILERS:It is an information typically occupying several bytes ,at the tail end of a block of transmitted data which may contain a checksum or other error-checking data useful for confirming the accuracy and status of transmission.
What protocols at other layers of the OSI model does ping use?
Layer 3 of the OSI model. An ICMP header follows the IP header of the IP packet.
What can be indentified by examining the network layer header?
IP Source and IP Destination n
What can be identifies by examining the network layer header?
The source and destination IP address can be identified.
What header information does a router change?
the Layer 2 source and destination address
When creating a packet how does the network layer determine the size of the packet?
The Network layer (Layer 3, typically IP) will receive a segment from the Transport layer (Layer 4, typically TCP or UDP), and will add its own header to it to create a packet. The size of the packet will thus always be the size of the segment plus the Network layer header, the same as when the next layer down (the Data Link layer, layer 2, typically Ethernet) encapsulates the packet into a frame for transmission.
Which OSI layer uses the header information to reassemble the data segments into streams?
transport layer
