The data link layer is responsible for the moving of the frames from one hop to another and the delivery of packets within the same network.But when there is the need to send the packets form one network to another then the network layer comes into play and with the help of logical addess being provided by the network later as well as with the help of routers or switches the packets are being reached to the desired destination.
