What is the purpose of a logical address?
What will be an ideal response?
This is a discussion to get the students thinking about why a logical (Layer 3) address is necessary when MAC addresses (Layer 2) are supposed to be unique.The basic answer is that MAC addresses do not identify the device as part of a network of subnet.To route traffic effectively, you have to have more than the physical address or you would need to discover every device in the world to get traffic from one location to another.Logical addressing allows us to couple devices that are locally connected and identify by smaller and smaller increments the specific device desired based on characteristics of its logical address.
