a. What does the network layer do? What is interior routing and what is exterior routing? In the Open Systems interconnection Model (OSI Model), the network layer lies in the third level and for network communication it provides paths for data routing. It is considered as the backbone of the OSI model because for the purpose for the data transfer between nodes, network layer performs selection and management of the best logical path. Switches, firewalls, bridges and routers are some hardware devices
