What else can I help you with?
What address do layer two switches use?
A MAC address
What are the consequences of using MAC addresses for routing in network layer routers?
Routers don't use MAC addresses for routing. They use IP address.
Which layer not support Mac address?
Layer 1 of the OSI Layer Model does not support MAC addresses.
Does MAC address operates at Layer 2?
yes. thougth the nic is a layer 1 device its mac address is used in datalink layer
Which sub layer of the datalink layer prepares a signal to be transmitted at the physical layer?
MAC
What does a layer 2 switch use to decide where to forward a received frame?
A layer 2 switch uses the MAC address to determine which port to switch the frame out of.
Which layer of the OSI model includes the MAC address?
That is considered part of layer 2.That is considered part of layer 2.That is considered part of layer 2.That is considered part of layer 2.
What layer of the OSI model holds information about MAC addresses?
transport layer
What TCP IP layer does a MAC address function?
Network Interface Layer
Which of the OSI layers translates the MAC address into a physical address?
The MAC sublayer is part of Layer 2 - Data Link Layer - but it is more correct to say that the MAC address is the physical address.
What layer Filters packets based on MAC addresses?
The layer that filters packets based on MAC addresses is the Data Link layer, which is the second layer of the OSI model. This layer is responsible for node-to-node data transfer and handles error correction from the physical layer. Devices such as switches operate at this layer, using MAC addresses to forward frames to the correct destination within a local area network (LAN).
Which sublayer of the data link layer prepares a signal to be transmitted at the physical layer?
MAC
