It encapsulates with a header and a trailer to create a frame.

The role is to transfer frames to packets

network layer
What is a PDU? corruption of a frame during transmission data reassembled at the destination retransmitted packets due to lost communication a layer specific encapsulation
Packet switching breaks the original data into smaller segments per packet before transmission. This is done in the layer 4 transport layer of the OSI model.
Data Link Layer
If you mean TCP or UDP data packets, then no, they make up every data transmission on the net.
NO,IT CONVERTS them into frame
Basically Its a transmission system that sends packets of data across a link and then waits until it has received signals back from the recipient to show successful transmission of all data packets in that window (set size of a number of data packets). Any packets that don't receive a successful transmission flag are resent before the window progresses to the next set of data packets.
PACKETS
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??
