The physical layer is the wires. We even have multi-wire links that appear to be single ethernet hops! This question of "what layer" is deeper than first inspection might suggest, and requires careful thought. I suggest that you think of the properties you might want a network to have, find the layer where the topology analysis will best help you analyze that property, and hope that data is available. | |
