Frames are encapsulating packets. The data link layer makes framing and provide this service to the layer above layer "the network layer".

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 is the fuction of the FCS field in an Ethernet frame?

The FCS (Frame Check Sequence) Component of an ethernet frame permits the end recipient to check for, and correct, errors in the packet. It is a checksum that is checked against the packet for data integrity, to put it simply. When the number does not check out properly, the frame is thrown out and a replacement packet is requested.

Host A has an IP address of 172.16.225.93 a mask of 255.255.248.0 and a default gateway of 172.16.224.1. Host A needs to send a packet to a new host whose IP is 172.16.231.78. What two things occur?

*Host A will get a result of 172.16.224.0 from the AND process. Host A will send on to the media a broadcast frame that contains the packet. *Host A will broadcast an ARP request for the MAC of the host 172.16.231.78. Host A will change the destination IP of the packet to 172.16.224.1 and forward the packet. Host A will encapsulate the packet in a frame with a destination MAC that is the MAC address associated with 172.16.224.1.
