[All 98-366 Questions]

What is a similarity between Layer 2 and Layer 3 switches?

  • A. Both provide a high level of security to the network.
  • B. Both use logical addressing to forward transmissions.
  • C. Both forward packets onto the network.
  • D. Both allow the implementation of VLANs.
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D 🗳️
A single layer-2 network may be partitioned to create multiple distinct broadcast domains, which are mutually isolated so that packets can only pass between them via one or more routers; such a domain is referred to as a virtual local area network, virtual LAN or VLAN.
LANs are layer 2 constructs, so they can be supported by both Layer 2 and Layer 3 switches.
Incorrect:
Not A: Layer 2 switches do not provide high level of security.
Not B: Another name for logical address is IP address. Only Layer 3 switches uses IP address. Layer 2 switches uses MAC addresses.
Not C: only Layer 3 switches forward packets on the network (like routers).

Your right, but that has nothing to do with the question. Managed switches can be at both Layer2 and 3 of the OSI model.
