ARP - Address Resolution Protocoll. Gets the corresponding MAC to an IP.
RARP - Reverse Address Resolution Protocoll. Gets the corresponding IP to a MAC.
The protocoll uses broadcasts and works only in the local network.
A network layer is not needed if both the hosts are in the same network. A data link layer can be used in such cases.

The transport layer in TCP/IP model is responsible to move the data across the network.It is the second layer from top in the model.
A layered network, or a network layer, is the set up of how data is sent over a network. Each layer has it's own responsibility by either capturing the data or routing it to a computer on the network.
the network layer is the same as the data link layer, they do the same thing. that is that they communicat with the network to send packets of data...
Data Link Layer
Physical, Data link and Network layers make the Network Support layers.
The data link layer handles communication between systems on the same local network. The network layer handles communication between systems on different local networks and allows those packets to be routed between the two. The data link layer would allow two machine on network a to talk to each other or two machines on network b to talk to each other. This communication takes place using the physical/MAC addresses of the machines. The network layer is what allows a machine on network a to talk to a machine on network b using logical address like IP addresses.
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 network interface card (NIC) of a Local Area Network (LAN) primarily operates at the Data Link Layer (Layer 2) of the OSI model. This layer is responsible for node-to-node data transfer and framing, enabling the NIC to manage how data packets are placed on and received from the physical medium. Additionally, the NIC also interacts with the Physical Layer (Layer 1), which deals with the physical connection and transmission of raw bits over the network medium.
