An Ethernet frame has a 14 byte header, a data section, and a 4 byte trailer

14 byte header consist of destination address, source address and type

The trailer is for CRC (Cyclic redundancy Check)

An Ethernet frame can contain an IP and TCP PDU.

IP header most important parts consists of (Version,IHL, Total length,Protocol, source and destination address)

In details (Version,Header length,Differentiated services field, total Length, Identification, Flags, fragment offset, Time to live, protocol, header checksum, source and destination address).

TCP header most important parts consists of (Source port, Destination port and header Length)

In details (Source Port, Destination Port, Sequence number, Acknowledgment number, Header length,Flags,Window and check sum).

The details of the IP and TCP header have been taken from a Network protocol Analyzer Wireshark on my own pc.

When header and trailer are added to pdu?

A header board, is a vertical structure on the front of flat-bed trailers. Its purpose is to keep the freight from moving forward onto the cab. It is humorusly called a headache rack (it prevents the load from shifting forward therefore prevents the driver from getting a "headache" when the cab is crushed. The terminology is different for a a dry-van trailer or a refrigerated trailer, or what is sometimes called a "box" trailer, wherein the front is called a bulkhead. Sometimes these two terms are incorrectly interchanged by drivers who lack trucking knowledge.


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.

What information is in an Ethernet header and trailer?

The Basic Header contains information about the source of the message. The Application Header contains information about the message type and the destination of the message.
