Huawei Certified ICT Associate – Data Center Network (HCIA-DCN) — Question 27

The data link layer uses PPP encapsulation. The IP addresses of the two ends of the link can be in different network segments.

Answer options

• A. True
• B. False

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is True because PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) allows for encapsulating multiple network layer protocols and supports communication between devices on different network segments. The other option, False, is incorrect as it implies that both endpoints must be on the same segment, which is not a requirement of PPP.
