Which network layer architecture Switches belong ?
AnswerClick to flip back
A
Data Layer
💡 Explanation:
Switches operate at Layer 2 (Data Link Layer) of the OSI model, using MAC addresses to forward frames within a network segment. They maintain MAC address tables to learn which devices are connected to which ports, enabling efficient frame forwarding. Routers operate at the Network Layer, not switches.
