  Media Access LANTechnologies Ethernet and Wi-Fi are both “multi-access” technologies Broadcast medium, shared by many hosts Simultaneous transmissions will result in collisions Media Access Control (MAC) protocol required Rules on how to share medium The Data Link Layer is divided into two Part MAC Media Access Control) Sublayer and LLC (Logic Link Control) Sublayer

  802.3 Ethernet LANTechnologies Carrier-sense multiple access with collision detection (CSMA/CD). CS = carrier sense MA = multiple access CD = collision detection Base Ethernet standard is 10 Mbps. 100Mbps, 1Gbps, 10Gbps standards came later
• 5.
  Ethernet CSMA/CD LANTechnologies CSMA/CD (carrier sense multiple access with collision detection) media access protocol is used. Data is transmitted in the form of packets. Sense channel prior to actual packet transmission. Transmit packet only if channel is sensed idle; else, defer the transmission until channel becomes idle. After packet transmission is started, the node monitors its own transmission to see if the packet has experienced a collision. If the packet is observed to be undergoing a collision, the transmission is aborted and the packet is retransmitted after a random interval of time using Binary Exponential Backoff algorithm.
• 6.
  Ethernet Address LANTechnologies End nodes are identified by their Ethernet Addresses (MAC Address or Hardware Address) which is a unique 6 Byte address. MAC Address is represented in Hexa Decimal format e.g 00:05:5D:FE:10:0A The first 3 bytes identify a vendor (also called prefix) and the last 3 bytes are unique for every host or device

  LAN Technologies EthernetFrame Structure Preamble: 7 bytes with pattern 10101010 followed by one byte with pattern 10101011 Used to synchronize receiver, sender clock rates Addresses: 6 bytes, frame is received by all adapters on a LAN and dropped if address does not match Length: 2 bytes, length of Data field CRC: 4 bytes generated using CR-32, checked at receiver, if error is detected, the frame is simply dropped Data Payload: Maximum 1500 bytes, minimum 46 bytes If data is less than 46 bytes, pad with zeros to 46 bytes Length
