 | | The data link layer in System B then reads the control information contained in the header prepended by the data link layer in System A. The header is then removed, and the remainder of the information unit is passed to the network layer. | | | The physical layer and the data link layer are implemented in hardware and software. | | | At the network layer, for example, an information unit consists of a Layer 3 header and data. |

| | If this device was a router, then that router accepts the data at the physical layer, brings it up the Data Link Layer verifying the bits being received are the transmitted bits from the far left machine by examining the checksums. | | | After the packet makes its way down the first router's stack, and across the physical layer wire to the next router, up its stack, and back down again to the far right stack, then it is ready to be processed by the destination host. | | | The Network layer examines the header added by the original far left stack, and determines that the packet is fine to be passed on up. |

| | Managing the Physical Layer |
| | All things considered, the physical layer is essentially the true “edge” of the network, but unfortunately has the least amount of visibility of all of the critical components making up the network infrastructure. | | | There are other approaches to physical layer management available today that can be categorized as a managed or an “intelligent” patch panel concept. | | | The NOC technician would need to go through a series of diagnostic operations to sectionalize the problem as much as possible, but would have no insight as to whether the events were generated by a problem with the equipment or the physical layer at the CO or the building where events are coming from. |

| | The TCP/IP Guide - Physical Layer (Layer 1) |
| | The physical layer is special compared to the other layers of the model, because it is the only one where data is physically moved across the network interface. | | | In general, then, physical layer technologies are ones that are at the very lowest level and deal with the actual ones and zeroes that are sent over the network. | | | A related notion is that “all network hardware belongs to the physical layer”. |
