What type of device is switch?
A Switch is a Layer 2 device as they operate in the data link layer
Bridge is used in which OSI layer?
Layer 2 (Data Link Layer) http://compnetworking.about.com/cs/internetworking/g/bldef_bridge.htm
At what layer works the Standard 802?
The Data Link Layer.............
What kind of device is a standard switch considered to be?
Data-link layer
Switches ans NIC's works at layer?
nic work on data link layer which is layer 2
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
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.
Can hub work on data link layer?
No. Hub works only on first layer. On second layer only swithc/bridge works on second layer of OSI model.
What layer of OSI model is switches on?
Switches are on the second layer of the OSI model (Data Link); they do filtering based on host MAC addresses. You may also see a third layer switch; they not only provide all switching capabilities but some layer three routing capabilities too.
Which layers does a link-layer switch process?
The link layer...
Bits are packaged into frames at which layer of the OSI model?
Data link layer
Which layer is represented by frames?
The data link layer (layer 2) and the physical layer (layer 1) use the constructed frame.
