Layer 2 of the OSI model, the Data Link Layer is composed of two sublayers, the lower being the MAC layer that regulates how computers access information on a network and transmit it. A bridge connects two networks, or two sections of a LAN, and works at the Data Link Layer to regulate it.
What else can I help you with?
Devices found in each OSI model?
1. Repeaters (Operate at the OSI Physical Layer).2. Bridges (Operate at the OSI Data Link Layer).3. Routers {and Brouters} (Operate at the OSI Network Layer).
Switch work in which layer of osi model?
Switches / Bridges and hubs work at data link layer, but there are layer three switches which operate at network layer. Dhruv
Routers operate at layer LAN switches operate at layer Ethernet hubs operate at layer?
Routers operate at layer 3. LAN switches operate at layer 2. Ethernet hubs operate at layer 1.
Bridges are used in which layer?
Layer 2, the data-link layer.
What is the LAN bridges and internet switches?
Bridges and switches operate at the same OSI layer - layer 2. That means they switch packets based on the destination MAC address. A switch is sometimes called a multi-port bridge.A bridge has 2 ports, whereas a switch can have many more than that.
Bridges work in which layer in osi layer?
Layer 2 , Data Link Layer
What type of addresses do bridges do?
Bridges primarily operate at the Data Link Layer (Layer 2) of the OSI model and use MAC (Media Access Control) addresses to forward data frames between different network segments. By analyzing the MAC addresses in the Ethernet frames, bridges can determine whether to forward or filter traffic, thereby reducing collisions and improving overall network performance. They do not use IP addresses, which operate at Layer 3, and are primarily concerned with local network traffic.
Switches operate at layer and Hubs operate at layer of OSI model?
Hubs are a physical layer (layer 1) device; most switches operate at the Data Link layer (Layer 2) of the OSI model.
What layer of the osi model does a LMI operate at?
Layer 2 - Data Link
Wireless access point operate in what layer in OSI model?
it works in layer 2
What devices extend the size of a broadcast domain?
Layer 1 (hubs) or Layer 2 (bridges or switches) devices.
Which layer wireless access point operate in osi model?
at both physical layer 1 and Data Link layer 2
