Difference between Network layer and Network switch

Network layer vs. Network switch

In the seven-layer OSI model of computer networking, the network layer is layer 3. A network switch (also called switching hub, bridging hub, officially MAC bridge) is a computer networking device that connects devices together on a computer network by using packet switching to receive, process, and forward data to the destination device.

Similarities between Network layer and Network switch

Network layer and Network switch have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Computer network, Data link layer, IPsec, Network packet, OSI model, Router (computing), Routing.

Computer network

A computer network, or data network, is a digital telecommunications network which allows nodes to share resources.
