An Ethernet frame is preceded by a preamble and start frame delimiter (SFD), which are both part of the Ethernet packet at the physical layer. Each Ethernet frame starts with an
Ethernet header, which contains destination and source MAC addresses as its first two fields. The middle section of the frame is payload data including any headers for other protocols (for example, Internet Protocol) carried in the frame. The frame ends with a frame check sequence (FCS), which is a 32-bit cyclic redundancy check used to detect any in-transit corruption of data. The internal structure of an Ethernet frame is specified in IEEE 802.3.[1] The table below shows the complete Ethernet packet and the frame inside, as transmitted, for the payload size up to the MTU of 1500 octets.[b] Some implementations of Gigabit Ethernet and other higher-speed variants of Ethernet support larger frames, known as jumbo frames. Answer. What is used to determine when the communication channels are clear and when a device is free to transmit data?Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) is used to determine when the communications channels are clear and when a device is free to transmit data.
Which of the communication channel types allows for information to flow in both directions at the same time?Full-duplex is the highest level of the three communication channels, allowing information to not only flow in both directions, but both directions can now operate simultaneously.
What data can flow across a cable in both directions?Full-duplex data transmission means that data can be transmitted in both directions on a signal carrier at the same time. For example, on a local area network with a technology that has full-duplex transmission, one workstation can be sending data on the line while another workstation is receiving data.
What allows you to form point to point networking connections?In computer networking, Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) is a data link layer (layer 2) communication protocol between two routers directly without any host or any other networking in between. It can provide connection authentication, transmission encryption, and data compression.
