The network layer is responsible for routing messages from the sender to the final destination. It provides logical addressing and forwarding of data packets through internetworks, and ensures that data is being sent to the correct destination. The other layers (data communication, resident, application, and physical) each have their own specific functions within the network, but do not handle routing of messages.
