ITEC 1000 Study Guide - Quiz Guide: Logical Link Control, Media Access Control, Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol
Document Summary
For certain types of physical layer connections, it is necessary to further divide the ip datagrams into smaller packets before they are delivered as frames to the data link layer. What are these smaller packets called: pages, parcels, fragments, scatter grams, although ip attempts to route every datagram to its final destination, it is a connectionless, packet switching service. Tcp/ip suite: socket, named interface, tcp/ip association, service association, tcp establishes a connection at the request of a network application. Regular applications available to the user are email (outlook), word, excel, powerpoint, software development, and the like. Http, ftp, and ssh are examples of network applications. The minimum is 8 + 12 + 2 + 46 + 4= 72 bytes. The maximum is 8 + 12 + 2 + 1500 + 4= 1526 bytes: suppose a higher layer application wants to send a file 12mb in size across an ethernet lan. Assume the largest ethernet payload is 1500 bytes.
