Do frames encapsulate packets?

Frames encapsulate packets. When a packet arrives at the data link layer, the entire thing, header, data, and all, is used as the data field of a frame. The entire packet is put in an envelope (the frame) so to speak (assuming it fits). Citiation: "Computer Networks". By Andrew S. Tanenbaum


What are the differences between segment packet and frame?

Theoretically Data Link Layer puts packet into frame by adding header and tail to the packet but how is it possible when you take into consideration CCSDS packet definition:"A packet is a block of data with length that can vary between successive packets, ranging from 7 to 65,542 bytes, including the packet header.Packetized data are transmitted via frames, which are fixed-length data blocks. The size of a frame, including frame header and control information, can range up to 2048 bytes."According to this, frame is smaller than packet, so how can you put packet into frame??

Define the terms packet datagram frame and token?

Data is transmitted on a network in pieces called packets, datagrams, or frames. Specifically, the frame is the header and trailer surrounding the data. The entire header, trailer, and data is called the packet or datagram. A token is a small packet used on Token Ring or FDDI networks. The token is passed from node to node to indicate to the node that data can be sent on the network.
