How does a layer 3 switch differ from a layer 2 switch?
What will be an ideal response?
Layer 3 switches work at layer 2 but also work at the network layer (layer 3) of the OSI model and use IP addressing for making decisions to route a data packet in the best direction. The major difference is that the packet switching in basic routers is handled by a programmed microprocessor. A layer 3 switch uses
application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) hardware to handle the packet switching. The advantage of using hardware to handle the packet switching is a significant reduction in processing time compared to using software.
