why there is an ethernet frame size limitation

2001-01-24 Thread azhar mumtaz
Hello Guys: What i want to know is why there is a limit that ethernet frame size cannot be less than 64 bytes and more than 1526 bytes. I know that this is how ethernet should be understand but whats the logic behind it. Similarly why we are limiting cell size of ATM to 53 bytes. Regards Azhar

I know the reason for two of three. 1) Why is the Ethernet minimum frame size of 64 bytes? Ethernet timing is based upon "bit time" the time a bit takes to travel the distance of an maximum Ethernet segment length 100m or 328 ft. The minimum frame size 64 bytes equals 512 bits or 512 bit

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 / 2 to get a return path =
