D) Switch, for sure. Although I do wonder if the exam writer is secretly testing our knowledge of the OSI model by throwing in all those other device types. Sneaky, sneaky...

Definitely D) Switch. I mean, who needs an IP address when you've got MAC addresses to get the job done, am I right?

D) Switch, no doubt about it. Routers have Layer 3 addresses, and firewalls and application servers are higher-layer devices. This one's a piece of cake!

Hmm, this one's tricky. I'm guessing the answer is D) Switch, since switches operate at Layer 2 and don't require IP addresses to forward packets.

I think you're right, switches work at Layer 2 and don't need IP addresses.

I'm not sure, but I think a Firewall could also be a possible option since it can filter and forward packets based on rules.

I agree with Annmarie. A Switch operates at layer 2 and forwards packets based on MAC addresses.

I think the device type that will forward network packets without an OSI layer 3 address is a Switch.
