2. Data Link Layer – Data Link layer is responsible to transfer data hop by hop (i.e within same LAN, from one device to another device) based on the MAC address. Some of the devices used in Data Link layer are,
3. Network Layer – The network layer is responsible for creating routing table, and based
on routing table, forwarding of the input request. Some of the Devices used in Network Layer are,
Figure: Typical interconnection of Router, Switch, Hub and Bridge 4. Transport Layer – Transport layer is responsible for end-to-end communication (or process-to-process communication). Some of the transport layer devices are,
5. Application Layer – Application layer is the top most layer of TCP/IP Model that provides the interface between the applications and network. Application layer is used exchange messages. Some of the devices used in Application layer are,
Which layer is responsible for communication between two devices?The network layer
The network layer is responsible for facilitating data transfer between two different networks. If the two devices communicating are on the same network, then the network layer is unnecessary.
Which TCP IP layer is responsible for transfer?File Transfer Protocol(FTP) is an application layer protocol that moves files between local and remote file systems. It runs on the top of TCP, like HTTP. To transfer a file, 2 TCP connections are used by FTP in parallel: control connection and data connection.
What is network layer in TCP IP?The internet layer, also known as the network layer, controls the flow and routing of traffic to ensure data is sent speedily and accurately. This layer is also responsible for reassembling the data packet at its destination.
Which TCP IP model layer is responsible for providing the best path through the network?Layer 3 (Network) transmits data segments between networks in the form of packets. When you message your friend, this layer assigns source and destination IP addresses to the data segments. Your IP address is the source, and your friend's is the destination. Layer 3 also determines the best paths for data delivery.
