Explanation

Layer 3 of the OSI model is the Network layer, which handles routing, logical addressing, and path determination between different networks. The Physical layer (Layer 1) deals with raw bit transmission over media, Data Link (Layer 2) handles node-to-node transfer on the same network, and Transport (Layer 4) provides end-to-end reliability.
