<div><p>Understand and use Ethernet frames, connections, and functions.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Many different factors influence the capabilities of Ethernet. Some of
|
||
|
|
these influences can come from the cabling and adapter type you use. Limiting
|
||
|
|
factors can be the capabilities of the hub or switch that you connect to,
|
||
|
|
the frame size you are able to transmit and receive, and the type of connection
|
||
|
|
you use.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>For more detailed information and some explanations of the terminology
|
||
|
|
and technology available to you, see the following: </p>
