How to identify which protocol belongs to transport layer and which protocol belongs to network layer
To be precise , we cannot use any logic to identify a protocol by its name that it belong to which layer. For this we have to always remember it.
for eg ip belongs to layer 3 i.e network layer .
but I want to clarify another thing here that even ip belongs to layer 3 but tcp that is a layer 4 protocol it also uses ip very frequently.
so we have to understand that protocols actually doesn't belong to a certain layer instead it's there lookup which we generally misunderstood with there belonging.
ip lookup is done at layer 3 where it checks the ip header's protocol field which reveals it has received a tcp information or udp and accordingly tcp protocol's lookup is done at layer 4 .
