Summary
LAN technology encapsulations provide delimitation, addressing, protocol identification, and bit-level integrity services. IP datagrams and ARP messages sent over Ethernet links are encapsulated using either the Ethernet II or IEEE 802.3 SNAP frame formats. IP datagrams and ARP messages sent over Token Ring links are encapsulated using the IEEE 802.5 SNAP frame format. IP datagrams and ARP messages sent over FDDI links are encapsulated using the FDDI SNAP frame format. IP datagrams and ARP messages sent over IEEE 802.11 links are encapsulated using the IEEE 802.11 SNAP frame format.
