Ethernet and Lan

This document discusses local area networks (LANs) and wired Ethernet LAN technologies. It begins by listing the key concepts and objectives to be understood, including LAN components, IEEE standards, and Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet technologies and implementations. It then covers traditional Ethernet technology, implementations, topologies, and standards development. Fast and Gigabit Ethernet technologies are also introduced along with connection examples. References include university documents, publishers, IEEE, and Cisco systems.

Note:

The star topology is the dominant


physical topology today.

Logical bus topology
Note:

In 1985, the Computer Society of the


IEEE developed Project 802. It covers
the first two layers of the Internet
model.

Technical Focus:
Ring Topology

Another physical topology common at the beginning of the LAN


era was the ring topology. In a ring topology, each station is
connected to the next station as shown in the following figure:
Note:

Project 802 has split the data link layer


into two different sublayers: logical
link control (LLC) and media access
control (MAC).
