Which device can connect two different types of networks and translates data between them?

Correct option is C

A Gateway connects two different types of networks and is responsible for translating data between them. This device acts as a protocol converter, allowing communication between networks using different protocols, such as LAN and WAN or IPv4 and IPv6 networks. Important Key Points:
1. Gateways are crucial for inter-network communication and protocol conversion.
2. Often operate at multiple layers of the OSI model, especially the Application Layer.
Knowledge Booster:
· Hub: Broadcasts data without translation between network types.
· Router: Routes data between similar networks using IP addresses.
· Switch: Filters and forwards data within the same network.
· Repeater: Amplifies signals but does not translate or route data.
