To do that it builds the Ethernet Frame and puts its MAC address as the Source MAC address (SMAC) and layer 2 broadcast address (ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff). PC-2 now creates an Ethernet frame to respond to the ARP. IP address. A switch forwards the broadcast out all the ports in same VLAN (except the port where broadcast was received).

An administrator configures default gateway configuration manually while configuring the system on the LAN or it can be configured automatically using the DHCP protocol. This packet is encapsulated in Ethernet frame and using the ARP entries on the Host A it forwards the frame to the default gateway on the network.

CCNA: Ethernet Frame Today lets talk about the Ethernet Frame and its different fields. Understanding the Ethernet Frame and fields helps to understand the communication between systems and troubleshooting when things are not in place. A typical Ethernet frame looks like the one in Figure 1.

TCP/IP stack has four layers Application, Transport, Internet, and Network Interface. This OSI layer Network and TCP/IP stack Internet layer perform the same function route traffic across logical networks using logical addressing and paths. Ethernet and Wi-Fi are commonly used protocols on this layer. Continue Reading.
