What if there are no mac addresses and all adapters use ip addresses?
Ethernet devices are identified by their MAC address, not an IP address. If their were no MAC address incorporated into the device then it is not following the rules define for the ethernet protocol. It would not be an ethernet network adapter or it would be a defective ethernet network adapter. As the LANs are designed for arbitrary network layer protocols, not just IP, so if the adapters are assigned with IP addresses rather than MAC addresses, than it will be difficult for adapters to support other network layers. Even if the adapters use entire network layer addressing schemes, they will need to be reconfigured every time they are powered up. So it is imperative to use neutral MAC address independent of network layer addressing schemes in order to ensure better performance of network.
Which type of bridge would be used to connect an ethernet segment with a token ring segment?
You will need a router. Token Ring and Ethernet refer to two different layer two protocols. You will need a layer three device to encapsulate the data for communication between the two networks. A bridge refers to a layer two device.
Which three addresses can be assigned to host A to enable this connectivity if Host A wants to connect on a different network?
"Different"? Same protocols (TCP/IP is near-universal) is easy. Different protocols less so. Physical connection exists? If not, you'll need to arrange one. Addressing and permissions? Same protocol, physical connection in place, you'll probably need to contact the network manager to be allowed to connect, or it may be as simple as setting subnet masks/ IP addresses. Look for an online networking tutorial.
Are website addresses allowed in answers?
Not in the answer directly - they need to be included via the 'Add related link' option in the left-hand blue panel.
If data link layer detect error why do you think we need transport layer?
because in the data link layer two routers communitate directly via a physical channel , whereas at the transport layer this physical channel is replaced by the entire subnet. In the data link layer ,it is not necessary for a router to specify which router it wants to talk to each outgoing line uniquely specifies a panicular router . In the transport layer explicit addressing of destinations is required.
Discuss role of protocols at different layers of the OSI model?
Protocols at each of the OSI layers govern how they are to talk to each other. Each layer of the OSI model has different responsibilities and they may have multiple protocols that they could use. The sender and receiver in networks must agree on a common ground for communication, which is the protocol. Depending on what you are trying to accomplish there are different protocols at different layers of the OSI model. Basically, you need the two systems to agree on how to do that. That is the role of a protocol.
What is the correct order for the OSI layers?
All people seem to need data processing, or Please do not through sausage pizza away Application, presentation, session, transport, network, data link, and physical. or Physical, data link, network, transport, session, presentation, and Application.

Investigate what protocols are in web browsing?
This is a homework assignment, do your assignments for you because you need to do these yourself to learn how to research and develop these skills. However the related link below will help you start this research.
What is the advantage of using switches rather than hubs?
The major benefit of a switch over a hub is the increase in the amount of collision domains. This allows a switched network to benefit from full duplex transmissions, negating the need for CSMA/CD, and doubling the potential throughput for each network segment. Switches typically operate at layer 2 of the OSI model, using destination MAC addresses within the Ethernet frame to intelligently filter or forward packets.
Do you need to uninstall any network protocols prior to installing a new nic?
No, the NIC will automatically install its own protocols and use them if needed
Do routers need MAC addresses?
yes they do.
