A broadcast network is one in which a transmission from any one attached station is received by all other attached stations over a shared medium. Examples are a bus topology local area network, such as Ethernet, and a wireless radio network. Discuss the need or lack of need for a network layer (OSI layer 3) in a broadcast network.

In other words, let's define a wireless network that relies on existing infrastructure. Aside from providing a foundation, the network has no other purpose. For the purposes of managing a network, what does this really mean?
As we all know, a network is a collection of linked devices, and whenever we have a collection of devices, we face the challenge of connecting them in such a way that one-to-one communication is feasible. Which methods/techniques are being employed to address this issue.
For those who are unfamiliar with the term "network," it refers to a collection of connected devices.
