Attacker      →  OSI Layer (Layer 3 & 4)   ⟶ Target Network

 Between attacker and target the core OSI module layers, layer 3 which is ipv4 , ipv6 and icmp and layer 4 which is TCP  and UPD is present. Transmission over a network is done through these layers. It is compulsory to understand the working of layer 3 and layer 4 of OSI module if attacker wish to penetrate over network layer.
