Different network devices function at different network communication layers, depending on their purpose. Using the TCP/IP model, identify the highest layer accessed by each of the following devices:


a. Router
b. Unmanaged switch
c. Wireless access point
d. Firewall

Respuesta :

The highest layer accessed by each of the following devices are:-

Router: Network/internet  layer.

Unmanaged switch: Application layer

Wireless access point:Application layer

Firewall: Transport layer and the Network layer

Explanation:

TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/ Internet Protocol

The TCP/IP networking model has four layers, namely,

  1. Application layer
  2. Transport layer.
  3. Internet layer .
  4. Network interface layer.

  1. Application layer:This is the highest layer or level of the OSI Model.It allows the user to interact with the software applications.
  2. Transport Layer:This layer builds on the network layer to transfer data  from a process on a source system machine to a process on a destination system.
  3. Internet Layer:This layer is also known as the network layer.It is responsible for the transportation of Packets from any network or computer irrespective of the route it takes.
  4. Network interface Layer: This layer is also called a network access layer. It helps you to defines details of how data should be sent using the network.
