Many of these protocols are originally based on the internet protocol suite tcpip and other models and they often do. Ping utility uses icmp protocol for its functioning. Data link layer protocols the data link layer provides service to the network layer above it. If it is layer 4 which protocol it uses tcp or udp. We can consider arp as layer 2 it is defined as an ethertype inside an ethernetv2 frame, and it is not forwarded by standard ip routers as a layer 3 it has to interoperate with the layer 3to2 mapp. A maclevel switch operates in layer 2 of the osi model and can also operate in a combination of layers 2 and 3.

When we talk about layer 2 and layer 3 networking, it is these layers that were referring to, and logically the further up the osi model we move, the greater. The network layer is interested in getting messages to the corresponding network layer module on an adjacent machine.
The application layer acts as interface between the applications and the underlying network. Many dynamic routing protocols are being used, but most organizations rely on two for their internal routing of ip traffic. In the internet suite of protocols called tcpip, it is the ip layer.
