Traditional Ethernet
• Ethernet and CSMA/CD (IEEE 802.3)• Carrier sense multiple access with collision
detection• Four step procedure
– If medium is idle, transmit
– If medium is busy, listen until idle and then transmit
– If collision is detected, cease transmitting
– After a collision, wait a random amount of time before retransmitting

Ethernet MAC Frame Format
• Preamble: 7-octet pattern of 0s &1s used to establish bit synchronization.
• Start Frame Delimiter (SFD): Indicates actual start of frame.• Destination Address (DA): Specifies the station(s) for which the
frame is intended• Source Address (SA): Specifies the station that sent the frame.• Length: Length of LLC data field in octets. • LLC Data: Data unit supplied by LLC.• Pad: Octets added to ensure that the frame is long enough for proper
CD operation.• Frame Check Sequence (FCS): A 32-bit CRC, based on all fields
except preamble, SFD, and FCS.

802.3 Medium Notation
• Notation format:<data rate in Mbps><signaling method><maximum segment length in hundreds of meters>
• e.g 10Base5 provides 10Mbps baseband, up to 500 meters
• T and F are used in place of segment length for twisted pair and fiber

Bridges
• Allow connections between LANs and to WANs• Used between networks using identical
physical and link layer protocols• Provide a number of advantages
– Reliability: Creates self-contained units
– Performance: Less contention
– Security: Not all data broadcast to all users
– Geography: Allows long-distance links

Bridge Functions
• Read all frames from each network
• Accept frames from sender on one network that are addressed to a receiver on the other network
• Retransmit frames from sender using MAC protocol for receiver
• Must have some routing information stored in order to know which frames to pass
![Page 13: Chapter 10: Ethernet and Fibre Cable Business Data Communications, 5e](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d615503460f94a430d6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Key Aspects of Bridge Function
• Makes no modification to content or format of frames it receives; simply copies from one LAN and repeats with exactly the same bit pattern as the other LAN.
• Should contain enough buffer space to meet peak demands.
• Must contain addressing and routing intelligence. • May connect more than two LANs.
![Page 15: Chapter 10: Ethernet and Fibre Cable Business Data Communications, 5e](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d615503460f94a430d6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Hubs
• Alternative to bus topology• Each station is connected to the hub by two lines
(transmit and receive)• When a single station transmits, the hub repeats
the signal on the outgoing line to each station.• Physically a star; logically a bus.• Hubs can be cascaded in a hierarchical
configuration.
![Page 16: Chapter 10: Ethernet and Fibre Cable Business Data Communications, 5e](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d615503460f94a430d6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Layer 2 Switches
• Also called a “switching hub”• Has replaced hub in popularity, particularly for
high-speed LANs• Provides greater performance than a hub• Incoming frame from a particular station is
switched to the appropriate output line to be delivered to the intended destination
• At the same time, other unused lines can be used for switching other traffic
![Page 18: Chapter 10: Ethernet and Fibre Cable Business Data Communications, 5e](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d615503460f94a430d6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Advantages of Switched Hubs
• No modifications needed to workstations when replacing shared-medium hub
• Each device has a dedicated capacity equivalent to entire LAN
• Easy to attach additional devices to the network

Types of Switched Hubs
• Store and forward switch– Accepts a frame on input line– Buffers it briefly– Routes it to appropriate output line
• Cut-through switch– Begins repeating the frame as soon as it
recognizes the destination MAC address– Higher throughput, increased chance of error
![Page 21: Chapter 10: Ethernet and Fibre Cable Business Data Communications, 5e](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d615503460f94a430d6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Business Data Communications, 5e
21
Differences Between Switched Hubs and Bridges
• Bridge frame handling is done in software. A layer 2 switch performs the address recognition and frame forwarding functions in hardware.
• Bridges typically only analyze and forward one frame at a time; a layer 2 switch can handle multiple frames at a time.
• Bridges uses store-and-forward operation; layer 2 switches use cut-through instead of store-and-forward operation
• New installations typically include layer 2 switches with bridge functionality rather than bridges.

Problems With Layer 2 Switches
• Broadcast overload • Lack of multiple links• Can be solved with subnetworks connected by
routers• However, high-speed LANs layer 2 switches
process millions of packets per second whereas a software-based router may only be able to handle well under a million packets per second
![Page 23: Chapter 10: Ethernet and Fibre Cable Business Data Communications, 5e](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d615503460f94a430d6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Layer 3 Switches
• Implement the packet-forwarding logic of the router in hardware.
• Packet-by-packet switch operates like a traditional router– Forwarding logic is in hardware– Achieves an order of magnitude increase in performance
compared to software-based routers
• Flow-based switch identifies flows of IP packets that have the same source and destination– Once flow is identified, a predefined route can be established to
speed up the forwarding process– Again, huge performance increases over a pure software-based
router are achieved

Why Use Ethernet for High-Speed Networks?
• Negative– CSMA/CD is not an ideal choice for high-speed LAN
design due to scaling issues, but there are reasons for retaining Ethernet protocols
• Positive– Use of switched Ethernet hubs in effect eliminates
collisions– CSMA/CD protocol is well understood; vendors have
experience building the hardware, firmware, and software
– Easy for customers to integrate with existing systems

– may also use multiple switches for a switched network, with switches also supporting end nodes
• Point-to-point topology – only two ports, directly connected, with no intervening fabric
switches
• Arbitrated loop topology – Simple, low-cost topology for connecting up to 126 nodes in a
loop.
– Operates in a manner roughly equivalent to token ring protocols
