Routers operate at the network layer (Layer 3) of the OSI model because their primary function is to determine the best path for data packets to travel from the source to the destination across multiple networks. This layer handles logical addressing (such as IP addresses), allowing routers to make forwarding decisions based on the destination address. By operating at this layer, routers can facilitate inter-network communication and manage traffic effectively, ensuring data is routed efficiently between different networks.
What else can I help you with?
What is the highest layer of the OSI model used by router?
Router works in Network Layer of OSI model
What layer does a router lie on?
Assuming you are using the OSI Modem a router sits on Layer 3: Network
What are the three layers that a router must implement to operate?
A router must implement the Physical layer, the Link layer, and the Network layer
What layer of OSI model does a router operate?
Router is a Layer 3 (Network Layer)device that checks packet's IP Address at input interface & routes them to interface connected to destination network if available.
How do you use a router to connect 2 networks together?
We know that a router is a layer 3 device means Network Layer. Router is a only device that can forward only uni cast massage. If u configure the router well and connect the two separate network, i think the network will go finely.
What device sends and receives information about the network layer?
Perhaps you mean a router?
Which OSI layer defines the functions of a router?
Network Layer - Does path determination and logical addressing.
Which part a network layer address does the router use during path determination?
The network address
What is the method described by the network layer for routing packets from a device on one network to a device on a different network?
A router
What carries the network layer addressing information that can be interpreted by a router?
routable
Discuss allthe network devices used indifferent layer oftheosi model?
Physical layer = Hub, NIC, Repeater. Data Link Layer = Switch, Bridge. Network Layer = Router.
Whic network layer device can separate anetwork into different broadcast domains?
ROUTER!
