Which layer of the OSI Reference Model is encapsulation into a frame performed?

layer 2


Which LAN device will direct frames onto the correct network segment by analyzing the frame's destination MAC address?

A Switch looks at the MAC address its a layer 2 device (OSI Model).


Does frame relay operate at layer 3 of the OSI model?

No. Frame Relay is not operating at Layer 3. Frame Relay is strictly a Layer 2 protocol suite, whereas X.25 provides services at Layer 3 (the network layer) as well. This enables Frame Relay to offer higher performance and greater transmission efficiency.


What TCPIP model layer is responsible for MAC addressing?

Primarily at layer 1 and 2. The frame adds this information for these layers.


What layer arrange signals into logical units of information called frame?

Layer 2 or the 'Data' layer of the OSI model encapsulates either 'bits' from the physical layer (1)- moving up the TCP stack or 'Packets' from the Network layer (3)- going down the the stack. 7 - Application Layer DATA 6 - Presentation Layer DATA 5 - Session Layer DATA 4 - Transport Layer SEGMENT 3 - Network Layer PACKET 2 - Data Layer (Incorporating LLC and MAC) FRAME 1 - Physical Layer BIT A good nmemonic for remembering the data encapsulation in the OSI model is 'Don't Some Peolple Fry Bacon' - Data, Segments, Packets, Bits.


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??


At what layer of the OSI does data become a packet?

Different textbooks may give you different answers to this question. In several I've seen, the "packet" is complete in the data link layer (layer 2) and is known as a 'frame' in the physical layer (layer 1). Others may indicate a packet is the result of the physical layer (layer 1). In other descriptions the terms packet and frame are interchanged in the layer 1 and 2 of the OSI model.


Which frame does the model 65-4 have?

The model 65 was produced with the K-frame.


Which network device is used to extend the length of a network segment by simply amplifying the data signal?

A repeater. Repeaters work only on layer 1 (Physical) of the OSI model.


Which layer of the OSI model is the data link layer?

Open system interconnection is the general networking model. Open system interconnection model is introduced by ISO . Physical layer is the first layer of OSI model.Data link layer is the second layer of OSI model. Data Link Layer, this layer is where we actually assign meaning to the electrical signals in the network.


What is layer 2 switching?

This refers to switching at layer 2 of the OSI reference model, for example, Ethernet. A switch looks at the MAC address of each Ethernet frame ("packet", you might say, but at this level the correct name is "frame"), and if it knows that this MAC address is connected at a certain port, the switch will send the information out ONLY through that port.This refers to switching at layer 2 of the OSI reference model, for example, Ethernet.
