Frames

Figure 2-16 Inside the NIC

Inside a frameInside a frame• Frames are made up of fields that contain informationinformation

• Frames contain the recipient’s MAC address, the sender’s MAC address, the data itself, and a cyclic , , yredundancy check (CRC) for error checking

Frame SizeFrame SizeFrame SizeFrame Size• Different networks use different sizes of framesframes

• Many frames hold about 1500 bytes of data• The sending software breaks up large amounts of data into smaller chunks

Processing FramesProcessing FramesProcessing FramesProcessing Frames• All devices on the network see the frame, b t l th d i th t it i dd d tbut only the device that it is addressed to will process it– Every frame is received by every NICEvery frame is received by every NIC– The MAC address is used to decide if the frame belongs to a given device

Getting Data on the LineGetting Data on the Linegg• Since the cable is shared, only one system may speak at a time

Getting To Know YouGetting To Know You• Usually two devices have talked before, so the destination MAC address is alreadythe destination MAC address is already known

• If the MAC address is not known, a broadcastIf the MAC address is not known, a broadcast message is sent over the network– The destination device will respond by sending its MAC address

– A MAC broadcast address is FF‐FF‐FF‐FF‐FF‐FF

• As a network grows a more universal address-• As a network grows, a more universal address-ing method than MAC addresses is needed

• TCP/IP: – Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)– Internet Protocol (IP)

IP IP –– Playing on Layer 3, the Playing on Layer 3, the Network LayerNetwork Layer• IP address: a unique numeric identifier• An IP address is a logical address while a g

MAC address is a physical address• IP uses a dotted-decimal notation• Each 8-bit number ranges from 0 to 255

– Example: 192.168.4.232N t t th t k h• No two systems on the same network share the same IP address

• Routers are used to• Routers are used to chop large networks up into smaller ones

• Routers forward• Routers forward packets by logical address

Assembly and Disassembly Assembly and Disassembly –– Layer 4, Layer 4, y yy y yythe the Transport LayerTransport Layer

• Most data is much larger than a single frame• Most data is much larger than a single frame• Network protocols chop up the data into smaller 

packets, and give each one a sequence numberp , g q• The sequence numbers are used by the receiving system 

to put the packets back in order, and to assemble them• This compares to the numbering of boxes by UPS
