Lab 2.1

Place the following steps of the encapsulation process in the proper order. -Packets or datagrams are converted to frames for transmission on the local network. Hardware (Ethernet) addresses are used to uniquely identify hosts on a local network segment. -Segments are converted to packets or datagrams, and a logical address is placed in the header so each packet can be routed through an internetwork. -User information is converted to data for transmission on the network. -Frames are converted to bits, and a digital encoding and clocking scheme is used. -Data is converted to segments, and a reliable connection is set up between the transmitting and receiving hosts.

1. User information is converted to data for transmission on the network. 2. Data is converted to segments, and a reliable connection is set up between the transmitting and receiving hosts. 3. Segments are converted to packets or datagrams, and a logical address is placed in the header so each packet can be routed through an internetwork. 4. Packets or datagrams are converted to frames for transmission on the local network. Hardware (Ethernet) addresses are used to uniquely identify hosts on a local network segment. 5. Frames are converted to bits, and a digital encoding and clocking scheme is used.
