Question:

A network has the ability to direct traffic toward all of the receiving services. What provides this ability in the transport layer?

Answer:

Multiplexing is the correct answer.

Explanation:

End-to-end communication over a network is done by transport layer.

Provides a logical communication between various application processes running on different hosts and this layer is set in OSI(open system interconnection) model.

Transport layer also manages error and correction and also it provides reliability to users.

Multiplexing gets allowed by the transport layer which enables to transfer messages over a network and also the error and corrected data.

Answer 2

The ability of a network to direct traffic toward all of the receiving services is provided by the Transport Layer and the process concerned with it is known as Multiplexing.

• Multiplexing is a process by which digital and analog signals are combined together into a single form and then the signal is shared over a medium.

• The signal may be wired or wireless.

• The main purpose of this process is to reduce the overhead networking problem as it uses a shared medium.
