the network layer --> check your question.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
That is totally not the right answer, how about you actually read the book for the course.
It is the data link layer that does encapsulation.
I agree - its the Data Link Layer which encapsulates the Network layer...NOT the Network Layer.
The layer of the OSI model that encapsulates Network layer packets is the Data Link Layer. The sublayers of the Data Link Layer in the IEEE 802 standards is the Logical Link Control sublayer and Media Access Control sublayer.
Network Layer Traffic (L3) is encapsulated by Ethernet Frames on the Data Link layer (L3).
Transport Layer Traffic (L4) is encapsulated by a Packet on the Network layer (L3).
Encapsulation always happens as data is passed down the OSI layers (towards the physical layer), and the encapsulated headers are removed at the receiving end as the payloads are passed up the OSI layers (towards the application layer).
The data link layer is the layer of the OSI model that encapsulates network layer pockets. The OSI model layer that protocols manage date delivery priorities is the transport layer.

Layer 2 or the 'Data' layer of the OSI model encapsulates either 'bits' from the physical layer (1)- moving up the TCP stack or 'Packets' from the Network layer (3)- going down the the stack. 7 - Application Layer DATA 6 - Presentation Layer DATA 5 - Session Layer DATA 4 - Transport Layer SEGMENT 3 - Network Layer PACKET 2 - Data Layer (Incorporating LLC and MAC) FRAME 1 - Physical Layer BIT A good nmemonic for remembering the data encapsulation in the OSI model is 'Don't Some Peolple Fry Bacon' - Data, Segments, Packets, Bits.
network session layer Session Layer (Layer 5) The session layer permits two parties to hold ongoing communications called a session across a network.

TCP operates at Layer 4 which is Transport of the OSI Model!
Layer 3 i.e, network layer of the OSI model is used to IP addressing.

The network layer is the layer that is responsible for routing packets on the network. This is the layer in which Internet protocol operates. In the seven layer OSI model, the network layer is the third layer from the bottom.

IP is a layer 3 (network layer) protocol used for routing
A network bridge connects multiple network segments at the data link layer (Layer 2) of the OSI model.
