[All PCCET Questions]

At which layer of the OSI model are routing protocols defined?

ANetwork

BPhysical

CTransport

DData Link

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

Routing protocols are defined at the network layer (Layer 3) of the OSI model. The network layer is responsible for routing packets across different networks using logical addresses (IP addresses). Routing protocols are used to exchange routing information between routers and to determine the best path for data delivery. Some examples of routing protocols are BGP, OSPF, RIP, and EIGRP. Palo Alto Networks devices support advanced routing features using the Advanced Routing Engine1.

I agree with Emily, routing protocols are indeed defined at the Network layer.

I think it's A) Network because routing protocols deal with network layer addressing.

Hmm, let me think... Is it the layer where the routers live? If so, then it's gotta be the Network layer. Or maybe it's the layer where the little routing fairies dance. Either way, I'm going with Network.

Network layer, all the way. What is this, a trick question? I bet the answer is hidden in the binary of the question itself.

Data Link layer, baby! Gotta keep those frames in check before they can even think about routing.

Transport layer, obviously. That's where the packets get all transported and stuff.

I'm pretty sure it's the Physical layer. I mean, that's where all the wire-y, signal-y stuff goes down, right?

Actually, routing protocols are defined at the Network layer, not the Data Link layer.
