Choose the best matching between Group 1 and Group 2.

   Group-1               Group-2   
 P. Data link          1. Ensures reliable transport of data
                           over a physical point-to-point link
 Q. Network layer      2. Encoder/decodes data for physical
                          transmission
 R. Transport layer    3. Allows end-to-end communication
                          between two processes
                       4. Routes data from one network
                          node to the next

(A) P-1, Q-4, R-3
(B) P-2, Q-4, R-1
(C) P-2, Q-3, R-1
(D) P-1, Q-3, R-2


Answer: (A)

Explanation: Data link layer is the second layer of the OSI Model. This layer is responsible for data transfer between nodes on the network and providing a point to point local delivery framework. So, P matches with 1.

Network layer is the third layer of the OSI Model. This layer is responsible for forwarding of data packets and routing through intermediate routers. So, Q matches with 4.

Transport layer is the fourth layer of the OSI Model. This layer is responsible for delivering data from process to process. So, R matches with 3.

 

Thus, A is the correct option.
