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.

What is the size of an Ethernet frame carrying an APR packet?

An Ethernet frame typically has a maximum payload size of 1500 bytes, which includes the APR (Address Resolution Protocol) packet. The APR packet itself is relatively small, usually around 28 bytes, allowing the Ethernet frame to accommodate additional headers and trailers, such as the Ethernet header (14 bytes) and the Frame Check Sequence (4 bytes). Therefore, the total size of an Ethernet frame carrying an APR packet would be at least 64 bytes (minimum frame size) up to 1518 bytes (maximum frame size).
