I'm going to qualify my following answers with "I would need to check on the
web, etc to make sure, but this is what I'm thinking is correct off the top
of my head".... =)
ALot of these protocols are really multilayered and it's hard to say that
it's only Layer 2 or Layer 1, etc.....

X.25 is a layer 2 encapsulation, and uses X.121 addressing for Layer 2
communications. Don't know if X.25 specifies L1 stuff, but wouldn't
surprise me.

ISDN does have a layer 3 component (Q.931) but also Layer 2 components
(Q.921) and layer 1 specifications

I agree with the other post on this one.... PPP is L2 only.

FR is is both a layer 2 and layer 1 thing....

ATM actually has 3 layers that fit into to Layer 1 and Layer 2 of OSI.

HDLC also is a Layer 2 and Layer 1 thing

I think LAPB and LAPB are only Layer 2 things.........
THat's my take on it...... =)
