Physical Medium
(or recipient) of the request or data.
Logical Link Control - the part of network node's system that supports
and resolves the issues of sending commands, data and maintaining
the logical links between the stations connected to the medium.
Data structure that holds all necessary control information to manage a
SAP - logical address. See section 3.4.
Local Service Access Point - a SAP within the local node.
Local Source Service Access Point - a SAP that is an originator of the
request or data.
Portion of the network node's system dedicated to the maintenance of
the connection to the medium.
See packet.
A collection of procedures aimed at producing an executable format for
an application to run.
Negative Acknowledgment - a dedicated message that is used in point-
to-point communications by a receiving node as a means of signaling
that the node is unable to receive a message.
A collection of hardware and software used to connect various stations
together in a strictly defined fashion for the purpose of exchanging the
data between the stations.
The list or active (participating) nodes that are attached to the medium
and are actively passing tokens.
A measure of how fast the signals are sent on the medium. Some
COM2002x's standard network speeds are 2.5Mbps (Mega-bits-per-
second) and 5Mbps. This parameter is controlled by the choice of the
crystal oscillator as well as the software via divisors. See section 6.
Synonymous with Station.
A unique number by which one station is distinguished from another.
Two stations connected to the same medium must not have the same
address. A packet is delivered to a station based on its address. Also
known as Node ID.
Packet is the string of bytes ordered according to the rules of MAC layer
and LLC layer. It is synonymous with message. See Section 3.6.3
Protocol Data Unit - a portion of the network packet that contains all the
necessary information for delivery and reply between the logical entities
within the Data Link Layer; as well as data.
A method by which local area network connects its stations together.
Physical layer specifies the delivery mechanism (wire, fiber-optic, radio
waves) and the signaling method for most effective and error preventing
