Q. What are the benefits of layered network?
Ans: Basic benefits of layered network are given below:
- Complex systems will be broken down into understandable subsystems.
- Any facility implemented in one layer will be made visible to all other layers.
- Each layer may be analyzed and tested independently.
- Services provided at a particular level may share the services of lower level.
- Layers will be simplified, extended or deleted at any time.
- Increase the compatibility and interoperability of several components build by different vendors.
