Computer Networks - OSI and TCP/IP Models
Which OSI layer is primarily responsible for error detection and correction in data frames?
Which OSI layer is primarily responsible for error detection and correction in data frames?
easy📝 Conceptual Q2 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Identify the layer handling error detection
The Data Link Layer adds error detection and correction mechanisms to ensure reliable frame delivery.Step 2: Differentiate from other layers
Network Layer routes packets, Transport Layer manages end-to-end communication, Session Layer manages sessions.Final Answer:
Data Link Layer -> Option DQuick Check:
Error detection = Data Link Layer [OK]
Quick Trick: Error checking happens at Data Link Layer [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES- Mixing Transport and Data Link layers
- Assuming Network layer does error correction
