Layers (Network Layers)

Network layers are like a series of organized steps through which data travels when sent or received over the internet. Each layer has a specific role, such as packaging data, addressing the recipient, establishing a connection, or ensuring data arrives intact. Think of them as different departments in a company, each handling a part of the process to ensure smooth communication. This layered approach allows different devices and technologies to work together seamlessly, making sure your email, website, or app data gets where it needs to go efficiently and accurately.
