Which of the following OSI layers does a Layer 3 switch operate at?
network layer
Discuss allthe network devices used indifferent layer oftheosi model?
Physical layer = Hub, NIC, Repeater. Data Link Layer = Switch, Bridge. Network Layer = Router.
What is the advantage of using a layer 3 switches in the core of a campus network?
The advantage of using a layer 3 switch is the speed at which it can establish a network connection.
What is the advantage of using a layer 3 switch in the core of a campus network?
The speed at which it establish a network connection.
What devices operate at the session layer of OSI model?
Gateway network device
Which device connects network segments at layer 2 of the OSI model?
Bridge
Diifference between distribution layer switch core layer switch?
Core layer switch forms the heart of the network. it interconnects all the subnetworks formed by distribution switches. It also has special modules such as IDPS. It has very high switching capacity when compared with normal (Access ) Switches. Distribution switch forms the intermediate layer between access and core switch.
How does a layer 2 switch create collision domains?
When using network switches, each port on the switch is its own collision domain.
What layer of the OSI model does a switch operate at?
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.
Switch work in which layer of osi modle?
layer 3 layer 3 Switch/ Bridges / Hubs works at layer 2 as they utilizes MAC address to communicate. However i aggree above stated answer as there are some layer three switches that work at Layer3 i.e. Network Layer. Dhruv
Which layer is absent in broadcast network?
network layer
Can a layer 2 switch be used on the core of the campus network?
a high grade layer 2 switch can be used to access local resources but will not be suffice to access the internet you would need a layer3 switch to access remote resources
