What else can I help you with?
Which layer not support Mac address?
Layer 1 of the OSI Layer Model does not support MAC addresses.
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.
What layer of the OSI model are the Media Access Control addresses part of?
Layer 2 data link layer
What layer of the OSI model routes data different lLANs and WANs based on network addresses?
Physical Layer of OSI model
What layer does ARP operate at?
ARP is protocol that doesn't fit nicely into the OSI model. It's not a layer two protocol because it utilizes Ethernet_II (Data Link) to get around with broadcast addresses (FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF). It's also not a layer three protocol because it doesn't provide routing capabilities. It maps layer 2 addresses to corresponding layer 3 addresses. So you could say it's 2.5. It is encapsulated within Ethernet_II frames.
What layer Filters packets based on MAC addresses?
The layer that filters packets based on MAC addresses is the Data Link layer, which is the second layer of the OSI model. This layer is responsible for node-to-node data transfer and handles error correction from the physical layer. Devices such as switches operate at this layer, using MAC addresses to forward frames to the correct destination within a local area network (LAN).
Which OSI model layer initiates the flow of information?
Application Layer
Which OSI model layer initaiates the flow of information?
Application Layer
What are the main function the internet layer?
The "Internet" layer in the TCP/IP model more or less corresponds to the "Network" layer (layer 3) of the OSI model. Both have the task of connecting different networks, independently on the type of layer-2 network; and of providing addresses to every machine on the Internet.
What OSI model layer is responsible for the flow of information from source to destination?
Transport layer
Is the network layer address important to a transparent learning bridge Why or why not?
The network layer address is not important to a transparent learning bridge because a transparent bridge operates at the data link layer (Layer 2) of the OSI model. It uses MAC addresses to make forwarding decisions and learn the network topology, while network layer addresses (like IP addresses) are not used in this process. Therefore, the bridge focuses solely on the MAC addresses to filter and forward traffic within the same local area network (LAN).
What part of an OSI model is the transport layer?
The transport layer in an OSI model is the layer that moves information or data between the network layer and the session layer. The Open Systems Interconnection model is a way of visualizing the processes that happen in communication and networking.
