The Link Layer - Services
Learn about the responsibility of the link layer and the services provided by it.
While the physical layer is responsible for the transmission of good signal through a physical medium, the link layer is responsible for the movement of a packet of information from one node to a neighboring node. In this context, we will consider a node to be a neighbouring node if it is connected through a single communication link, regardless of whether it’s wired or wireless.
