    This meme is kind of wrong though, because it’s mixing the OSI model with the TCP/IP model, which are different representations of the same thing, but in either model the “link layer”, ie layer 2 switching would never hand over to the “internet” layer without going through network first. So if you’re confused, it’s because it’s wrong.

    Application, transport, session, transport, network, data, physical (OSI) Application, transport, internet, network (TCP/IP)
