An Ethernet MAC sublayer receives 42 bytes of data from the upper layer. How many bytes of padding must be added to the data?

The padding needs to make the size of the data section 46 bytes. If the data received from the upper layer is 42 bytes, we need 46 − 42 = 4 bytes of padding.

What are two primary responsibilities of the Ethernet MAC sublayer?
MAC provides physical addressing. The BIA (Burn In Address) which is stored in RAM when the computer boots up is added to each frame that is created as the source mac address. But to answer your question, the MAC layer does the following: Data Encapsulation and Media Access Control.
What is difference between cellpading and cellspacing in HTML?
Cell Padding is the Padding from the outside of the cell to the inner text. If you added a border to the cell then added cell padding then you'd notice it slowly moving further from the border the higher the padding got. Cell Spacing is the gap between the cells. If you then added a border to all cells then to the table you would notice the cells moving further away from each other and as a result from the outer border of the table.
Which protocol is used to discover the destination address needed to be added to an ethernet frame?
ARP

Why doesn't the old ps2 have a phone cable cord?
The new ones do not have a phone cable cord it is an ethernet cable and the plug is large than a phone cable jack and only looks similar. PS2 added the ethernet when the new model PS2 slim was released
How do I get better tracking on my running shoes?

What would happen when you manually added an entry you entered the correct i p address but the wrong Ethernet address for that remote interface?
Once the router/adaptor received the destination IP address (even if we entered in the incorrect MAC address) the router/adapter would remove the IP address from the Ethernet frame and using ARP, would get the correct MAC address of the destination
What is added when extra filler data is needed in a packet?
In Computer networking, you have data that is transmitted through packets. In which is what we call an Ethernet frame. That Ethernet frame broken up into several pieces. They are:The PreambleRecipient's MACSender MACTypeData (Your information)Pad (FILLER)FCSThe reason why we have the "Pad" is because your standard minimum for an Ethernet frame size is 64 bytes. However, it doesn't all have to be your actual data. For example, if you were to send data that was not 64 bytes. Your NIC (Network Interface Card) will automatically add extra data which is what we can the "Pad" portion. This adds data so that we are back up to the minimum value of 64 bytes within an Ethernet frame.

What protocols is used for sending digital data over fiber optic cables?
Fiber optic cables are nothing but another transmission medium. All the protocol which works on Ethernet cable will work in Fiber optic cable also. In case of Ethernet, the digital data will be sent in electrical signal format. But Fiber Optic cables are passive devices. They can not conduct electrical signals. So the digital data signals needs to be converted to Optical signal before sending that via fiber. Usually after the conversion process, the header will be added. This header will be added by the originating device of the optical signal and will be removed by the receiving optical device before sending that signal via Ethernet or some other transmission medium..
