- We notice that the features for network layers can be widely separated into functionality for data planes and plane power. What are the major data plane functions? From the control plane?arrow_forwardThe topology of a network is its structure. Topology has two forms of expression: the physical and the intellectual. The physical topology of a network describes how its components—such as nodes, switches, and cables—are set up. Regardless of the physical topology, the data flow is tracked by the logical topology. For instance, the physical topology of two networks might be radically different while sharing the same logical topology.arrow_forwardDraw a detailed diagram showing the design and implementation of the Functionality of the network layer, Design and implementation of data plane, Design and implementation of control plane and the Interconnection of networks using bridging systems.arrow_forward
