In the enterprise, data link protocols provide functions such as finding a path and managing parallel paths. In LANs, the most common kind of learning is finding a path through a set of network ...

A couple posts ago, we talked about Layer 1 of the OSI Model — the Physical Layer.Today, we’ll start our climb up the Model with a visit to Layer 2, the Data Link Layer.. The Data Link Layer ...

The Bottom Layers In Ethernet and Wi-Fi networks, the data link layer is split into two sublayers. The Logical Link Control (LLC) is an interface to the Media Access Control (MAC) layer.

The layers, and what they represent, are as follows: Layer 7: Application. The Application Layer in the OSI model is the layer that is the “closest to the end user”.

Abstract: This paper analyze the development trend of the satellite communications, describe the existing data link layer protocol of the Satellite Networks network and conclude the characteristics ...

Ethernet is a computer networking technology that defines physical and data-link layers of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model. The IEEE 802.3 standard describes these functions in an ...
