    Study Notes

    Network Access Layer (OSI Model)

    • Provides services to allow data to be transmitted between devices on the same network
    • Routes data between devices on different networks
    • Defines how devices access the network and how data is framed

    LLC Sublayer (OSI Model)

    • Provides error-checking and correction capabilities
    • Manages multiplexing, allowing multiple devices to share the same network
    • Establishes and terminates connections between devices

    MAC Sublayer (OSI Model)

    • Manages access to the network, ensuring devices take turns transmitting data
    • Provides addressing and routing functions at the data link layer
    • Converts logical addresses into physical addresses

    Ethernet Frame Components

    • Padding field: Ensures that the minimum frame size is met, adding extra bytes if necessary
    • CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check): Verifies the integrity of the data by detecting errors during transmission
