data link layer
Jump to user comments
networking
Layer two, the second lowest layer in the
OSI
seven layer model. The data link layer splits data into
frames
(see
fragmentation
) for sending on the
physicallayer
and receives acknowledgement frames. It performs error
checking and re-transmits frames not received correctly. It
provides an error-free virtual channel to the
network layer
.
The data link layer is split into an upper sublayer,
LogicalLink Control
(LLC), and a lower sublayer,
Media AccessControl
(MAC).
Example
protocols
at this layer are
ABP
,
Go Back N
,
SRP
.
