What else can I help you with?
Which are layer 1 switches?
There are no layer 1 switches; switches run at layer 2 or 3. A hub is a layer 1 device.
Will layer 3 switches route packets between devices on different subnets?
Yes. Most switches (which operate at layer 2) will NOT route packets between different subnets. However special layer 3 switches DO have this capability.
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.
How do Multilayer switches combine Layer 2 data switching with Layer 3 routing?
Application specific integrated circuitMPLS
How does network packets work?
On a packet switched network, data travels between layers 1, 2 and 3 of the OSI model using routers (layer 3), switches (layer 2), and media (layer 1).
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.
What layer of the OSI model is a Switch on?
It operates on the data link layer of the OSI model (level 2). The switch creates a separate collision domain for each port. Although some switches operate on level 3 of the model and are called multi-layer switches.
What distinguishes switches from repeating devices such as hubs?
layer 3 switches require ip address but hub do not require
Which device eliminates broadcast storms?
a router and a layer 3 switches.
Switch work in which layer of osi modle?
layer 3 layer 3 Switch/ Bridges / Hubs works at layer 2 as they utilizes MAC address to communicate. However i aggree above stated answer as there are some layer three switches that work at Layer3 i.e. Network Layer. Dhruv
What network component operates at layer 3 of the OSI RMrm and forwards network protocols such as ip toward their destination?
Routers and layer 3 switches work at Layer 3 of OSI model.
What is the advantage of using a layer 3 switches in the core of a campus network?
The advantage of using a layer 3 switch is the speed at which it can establish a network connection.
