Packets Words
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.

To access a network, some type of network card must be installed in the computer.

packet sniffer
A parcel of data sent across a computer network is called a "packet." Packets contain both the data being transmitted and metadata, such as the source and destination addresses, to ensure that the data reaches the correct endpoint. They are a fundamental component of network communication, allowing for efficient and reliable data transfer over various types of networks.
