Try layer 1. Hubs and repeateras are purely physical. They don't process
data in any way, shape, or form. All they do is move bits from one port to
another. They are focused on BITS, not packets, segments, or frames. Check
your OSI layer functions.
Bridges and switches are layer 2
Routers and MLS cards are layer 3 & 4 (depending on whether you're
switching/routing by net address or protocol/port)
