SEMESTER 1 Chapter 7Data Link Layer V 4.0 7.1.1 What are the 2 basic services the Data Link layer provides? Allows the upper layers to access the media using techniques such as framing Controls how data is placed onto the media and is received from the media using techniques such as media access control and error detection List and define the 4 specific terms associated with the Data Link layer? Frame - The Data Link layer PDU Node - The Layer 2 notation for network devices connected to a common medium Media/medium (physical)* - The physical means for the transfer of information between two nodes Network (physical)** - Two or more nodes connected to a common medium 7.1.1.2 What happens the frame as moves from source to destination? It changes based on the medium used 7.1.2 Define Media Access Control. The technique used for getting the frame on and off media 7.1.3 What can the control information tell you? Which nodes are in communication with each other When communication between individual nodes begins and when it ends Which errors occurred while the nodes communicated Which nodes will communicate next List and define the three elements of a Data Link Layer Frame. Data - The packet from the Network layer Header - Contains control information, such addressing, and is located at the beginning of the PDU Trailer - Contains control information added to the end of the PDU 7.1.3.2 List and define the 5 typical field types. Start and stop indicator fields - The beginning and end limits of the frame Naming or addressing fields Type field - The type of PDU contained in the frame Quality - control fields A data field -The frame payload (Network layer packet) 7.1.4 What is the most common physical device that is used for the Data Link Layer? NIC 7.1.4.2 Describe the two sublayers of the Data Link Layer. The upper sublayer defines the software processes that provide services to the Network layer protocols. The lower sublayer defines the media access process
