I thought routers had more ports than switches, that's surprising!

Wait, aren't routers L3 devices, not L4?

I remember that switches are L2 devices, but I thought routers were L3, not L4. That might be a trick option in this question!

I practiced a question similar to this, and I think the L2 and L4 distinction is important. But I’m confused about which layer routers actually operate at.

I'm not too sure about the port density part. I remember something about switches having more ports, but I can't recall the specifics.

I think switches build a MAC table, right? And routers have that routing table. Seems like a basic difference.

Okay, I've got this. Boiler feed water corrosion is typically prevented by adding oxygen scavengers to the process. That helps remove dissolved oxygen and protect the boiler components from oxidation. I'm confident that's the right answer.
