Wan Tecnology
Regarding wan technology most cisco books says it operates on layer 1 and 2, but the cisco web site also includes layer 3"
Let me paste you what CISCO academy books says:
"A WAN (wide area network) operates at the physical layer and the data link layer of the OSI reference model."
From their web site:
WAN technologies function at the lower three layers of the OSI reference model: the physical layer, the data link layer, and the network layer.
OK, now what the right answer for this?
can anyone explain to me. Thanx

Just my opinion.....
WAN's by themselves do operate at the Physical and Data Link layers of the OSI Model.
I think where youre getting confused is when they dicuss WAN Technologies/Protocols which operate at the Physical, Data Link, and Network layer of the OSI Model.
Thats just my opinion.....
