Q: What appears in an Ethernet frame just after the Start Frame Delimiter?

Answers

  • Destination Media Access Control (MAC) address
  • Payload
  • Frame Check Sequence
  • EtherType field

Explanation: The Destination MAC Address field is located in an Ethernet frame just after the Start Frame Delimiter (SFD), which is located at the very beginning of the frame. The MAC address of the device to which the Ethernet frame is directed may be found specified in the Destination MAC Address field of the Ethernet frame. Following the field that indicates the MAC address of the recipient, the next field is called the Source MAC Address field, and it indicates the MAC address of the sender. The structure of an Ethernet frame is comprised not just of these elements but also of the Type or Length field, any following data fields, and any checksum fields.
