Chapter 13 Wired Lans: Ethernet

The document discusses the evolution of Ethernet standards over time, including the original Standard Ethernet created in 1976 and its upgrades to Fast Ethernet operating at 100 Mbps, Gigabit Ethernet at 1 Gbps, and Ten-Gigabit Ethernet at 10 Gbps. Each new standard was developed by the IEEE to increase speed while maintaining backward compatibility with previous Ethernet frame formats and addressing. The standards also introduced new physical layer technologies to support higher speeds such as twisted-pair cabling for Fast Ethernet and fiber-optic for Gigabit and Ten-Gigabit Ethernet.

IEEE Standards
In 1985, the Computer Society of the IEEE started a project, called Project 802, to set standards to enable intercommunication among equipment from a variety of manufacturers. Project 802 is a way of specifying functions of the physical layer and the data link layer of major LAN protocols.

Logical Link Control (LLC)


Framing: LLC defines a protocol data unit (PDU) that is similar to that of HDLC To provide flow and error control for the upper-layer protocols that actually demand these services

Standard Ethernet
The original Ethernet was created in 1976 at Xeroxs Palo Alto Research Center (PARC). Since then, it has gone through four generations

Addressing
Ethernet address in hexadecimal notation

The least significant bit of the first byte defines the type of address. If the bit is 0, the address is unicast; otherwise, it is multicast The broadcast destination address is a special case of the multicast address in which all bits are 1s

Ethernet
Access method: 1-persistent CSMA/CD Slot time = rount-trip time + time required to send the jam sequence 512 bits for Ethernet, 51.2 s for 10 Mbps Ethernet Slot time and collision Slot time and maximum network length MaxLength = PropagationSpeed x SlotTime/2 MaxLength = (2 x 108) x (51.2 x 10-6/2) = 5120 m MaxLength = 2500 m 48 % of the theoretical calculation by considering delay times in repeaters and interfaces, and the time required to send the jam sequence
