Hey ajeet, Using both the layer we are passing data only, but the diff is : 1. with layer 4, we are taking help of IP and PORT 2. with layer 7, we are taking advantage of path and host based routing . is my understanding is correct? Feel free to add more . Can you explain this in a bit more detail - "Layer-4 is useful when nginx doesn't understand the protocol"?
