Logical Link Control

The logical link control (LLC) sublayer is the upper sublayer of the data link layer that acts as an interface between the network layer and the medium access control (MAC) sublayer. It allows multiple network protocols to operate simultaneously over the same network medium. The LLC sublayer provides functions like multiplexing and de-multiplexing protocols over the MAC layer during transmission and reception, flow and error control, and assigning frame sequence numbers.

The logical link control (LLC) is the upper sublayer of the data link layer of the open system

interconnections (OSI) reference model for data transmission. It acts act an interface between
the network layer and the medium access control (MAC) sublayer of the data link layer.
The LLC sublayer is mainly used for its multiplexing property. It allows several network
protocols to operate simultaneously within a multipoint network over the same network
medium.

LLC Layer in the OSI Model

The Open System Interconnections (OSI) model is a 7 – layered networking framework that
conceptualizes how communications should be done between heterogeneous systems. The
data link layer is the second lowest layer. It is divided into two sublayers −

 The logical link control (LLC) sublayer


 The medium access control (MAC) sublayer
The following diagram depicts the position of the LLC sublayer −

Functions of LLC Sublayer


 The primary function of LLC is to multiplex protocols over the MAC layer while
transmitting and likewise to de-multiplex the protocols while receiving.
 LLC provides hop-to-hop flow and error control.
 It allows multipoint communication over computer network.
 Frame Sequence Numbers are assigned by LLC.
 In case of acknowledged services, it tracks acknowledgements

Connection Mode Service

The main concepts of connection mode service are illustrated through a client program and its
server. The examples are presented in segments.

In the examples, the client establishes a connection to a server process. The server transfers a
file to the client. The client receives the file contents and writes them to standard output.

Layanan Unacknowledged Connectionless


Yaitu dimana mesin sumber mengirimkan sejumlah frame ke mesin yang dituju dengan tidak
memberikan acknowledgment bagi diterimanya frame-frame tersebut. Tidak ada koneksi yang
dibuat baik sebelum atau sesudah dikirimkannya frame. Bila sebuah frame hilang sehubungan
dengan adanya noise, maka tidak ada usaha untuk memperbaiki masalah tersebu di data link
layer. Jenis layanan ini cocok bila laju error sangat rendah, sehingga recovery bisa dilakukan
oleh layer yang lebih tinggi. Layanan ini sesuai untuk lalu lintas real time, seperti percakapan,
dimana data yang terlambat dianggap lebih buruk dibanding data yang buruk. Sebagian besar
LAN menggunakan layanan unacknowledgment connectionless pada data link layer.
Layanan Acknowledged Connectionless
Layanan inipun tidak menggunakan koneksi, akan tetapi setiap frame dikirimkan secara
independent dan secara acknowledgment. Dalam hal ini, si pengirim akan mengetahui apakah
frame yang dikirimkan ke mesin tujuan telah diterima dengan baik atau tidak. Bila ternyata
belum tiba pada interval waktu yang telah ditentukan, maka frame akan dikirimkan kembali,
mungkin saja hilangnya acknowledgment akan menyebabkan sebuah frame perlu dikirimkan
beberapa kali dan akan diterima beberapa kali juga. Layanan ini akan bermanfaat untuk saluran
unreliablem, seperti sistem tanpa kabel.
