Ethernet
LANs
- Wireless
- You can communicate with any device without a cable
- Having wireless makes it mobile
- Saves a person money because you don't have to buy cables
- Cabling Pinouts
- Nodes can use specific pairs of wires to create each circuit
- Helps define which wires connect to which pin positions on the connectors
- Straight-through cables are best used and work for 10base-T and 100base-T
- Standards
- Shorthand names help list the speed as part of the right name
- The first standard ran at 100 Mbps
- All standards for Ethernet LANs began with 802.3
- Switching
- A switch's logic knows how to forward a particular frame
- The flooding process helps with how to forward a frame when a switch doesn't know how to
- Most switches dynamically learn their MAC table entries
