hello all,
I had somebody ask me what the source mac address would be on a frame sent
across a serial link connected by to two routers,
for example: Host A sends a packet to Host B, which is on the other side of
the wan link. what would Host B see and what where would he send his reply
to.(the l
Title: RE: Ethernet Frame
Remember that frames are a Layer 2 entity; they aren't aware of network addressing. All a frame knows or cares about is how to reach the next device. That being the case, Host B would see the source MAC address of the local router. IP and other Layer 3 addresses
To my knowledge serial links don't have a MAC address. Since most of them
are either a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint there are some other type
of mappings. If a serial port needs a MAC address it usuall uses one from
another interface that has one (i.e. ethernet).

It would not be an Ethernet Frame. It would be a PPP or HDLC or FR frame.
The router would strip off the Ethernet frame and router it across the
Serial Link using a new frame type based on the encapsulation method. There
are no MAC addresses.

was resolved by setting them both to the same speed and mode.

If you have a box with Linux you can install Ethereal. I've used it for a

Of course it's correct, but it's not really relevant to the question, which

Azhar. Buy a book! or use a search engine. This stuff is out there
Ethernet Frame Size.
64bytes*8bits/10M = 50uS
knock off a bit for 2 repeaters, e.g. 10uS per repeater = 30uS
x signal propagation (glass/copper = 2/3*c = 2m/s) = 6000m
