What OSI layer handles logical address to logical name resolution?

The OSI layer that handles logical address to logical name resolution is typically associated with Layer 7, the Application Layer. This layer allows applications accessing the network to identify and communicate with each other through high-level addressing schemes such as domain names. For example, when you type a web address into your browser, the Application Layer services, including those provided by the DNS (Domain Name System), work to resolve the human-readable hostname to an IP address that the network can understand and route to correctly. This process is crucial for the functionality of internet browsing and various networked applications that rely on user-friendly names rather than numerical IP addresses.
