Ethernet at the Physical Layer Digital, Intel and Xerox (DIX) group firstly developed the Ethernet. DIX group very first created and deployed the first Ethernet LAN Specification which the IEEE used to create the IEEE 802.3 committee. It was 10Mbps network which ran on coax, then ultimately on twisted pair and fiber media. Later, the [...]

Ethernet-II Frame and 802.3 Ethernet Frame: Data Link layer performs the process of combination of bits into bytes and bytes into frames. So, Data Link layer employs frames to summarize the packets which were received from the Network Layer for transmitting on a sort of media access. The function of Ethernet stations is to pass [...]

Ethernet at the Data Link Layer Ethernet addressing, hardware or MAC addressing occur on Data Link Layer. Framing packets from Layer 3 is received by Ethernet and Ethernet also organize those packets for transmission on the LAN through the Ethernet argument media access method. Ethernet Addressing Ethernet addressing employs the Media Access Control (MAC) address, [...]

We can also called hub a multiple port repeater. It receives a digital signal and enlarges it, then sends that signal to all ports in that hub without reading data. So, its means all devices connecting to that hub are in a single collision domain and in a single broadcast domain. Hubs never inspect any [...]

The Layer 2 Switching can be regarded as hardware based bridging as it employs a particular hardware, which is called an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC). Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC) works on gigabit rate with very low latency rates. Latency is a calculated time when a frame enters in a port and exits a [...]

The Physical layer of the OSI Reference Model sends and receives bits. Bits travel in the values of 1 or 0 (a code with numerical values). This layer directly is in touch with the many kinds of real media. Multiple types of media signify these bits in multiple manners. Few use audio tones; however others [...]
