JN0-102 · Question #10
Which layer in the TCP/IP model is responsible for delivering packets to their destination?
The correct answer is C. Internet Layer. The Internet Layer of the TCP/IP model is responsible for logical addressing and routing packets across different networks to reach their destination. This includes determining the best path for data delivery.

Why each option
The Internet Layer of the TCP/IP model is responsible for logical addressing and routing packets across different networks to reach their destination. This includes determining the best path for data delivery.
The Application Layer provides application-specific services to users.
The Transport Layer provides end-to-end communication services between applications, such as TCP and UDP, handling segmentation and reassembly.
The Internet Layer (also known as the Network Layer in the OSI model) is responsible for logical addressing (IP addresses) and routing, ensuring that packets are delivered from the source host to the destination host, potentially across multiple networks.
The Network Access Layer (also known as the Data Link and Physical Layers in OSI) handles the physical transmission and local network addressing.
