Chapter 7 delves into the essential functions of the Data Link Layer of the OSI model, elucidating its critical role in data transmission. Key topics include the preparation of data for network transmission, common media access control methods, and logical network topologies. The chapter also explores how packets are encapsulated into frames, detailing the generic structure of Layer 2 frames, including frame header and trailer fields such as addressing, Quality of Service (QoS), and protocol types. Gain insights into why data link layer protocols are vital for managing media access.

What will we learn from chapter 7? • Their role in data transmission • Prepare data for transmission on network media • Media access control methods • Common logical network topologies • Encapsulating packets into frames • Layer 2 frame structure - generic fields • Frame header and trailer fields: • addressing • QoS • Type of protocol • Frame Check Sequence
Data Link Layer – Accessing the Media Why Data Link layer protocols required to control media access
Media Access Control Techniques Controlling access to the media
Media Access Control Techniques Two media access control methods for shared media and their basic characteristics
Media Access Control Techniques Full Duplex and Half Duplex as it relates to Media Access Control for non-shared media
Media Access Control Addressing and Framing Data The role of addressing in the Data Link layer - cases where addresses are needed – or not needed
