Multilayer protocols: Multilayer protocols involve structuring network communications into separate logical layers, each with a specific function, facilitating both flexibility in network operations and enhanced security. This layered approach, exemplified by the OSI model and TCP/IP suite, allows for better abstraction, ease of troubleshooting, and the ability to apply security controls at different levels of the network.
