    Which layer of the internet architecture model is responsible for routing packets between networks?
    Question

    Which layer of the internet architecture model is responsible for routing packets between networks?

    A.

    Transport layer

    B.

    Data link layer

    C.

    Network layer

    D.

    Application layer

    Correct option is C

    The Network layer ensures successful delivery of packets across networks by determining routes, handling IP addressing, and forwarding mechanisms.
    Important Key Points:
    1. Internet Protocol ( IP) operates at this layer, enabling device communication between networks.
    Knowledge Booster:
    · Transport layer: Manages end-to-end data delivery but not routing between networks.
    · Data link layer: Ensures communication within the same network (local or adjacent).
    · Application layer: Facilitates user-level services like web browsing or email, not routing tasks.
