A file size of eleven 11 Megabytes is transmitted from one c
A file size of eleven (11) Megabytes is transmitted from one computer to another computer on a local area network using Ethernet protocol (IEEE 802.3). The protocol converts the data to data frames using the frame structure shown below How many frames are needed to transmit the file? Note 1 MB = 1024 * 1024 bytes The answer is an integer number; like 1000, 3500, or 4891. The Frame Structure of IEEE 802.3 used for this problem
Solution
Overhead byte is is kept at first frame and it has value equivalent to (1 + remaining non-zero byte values)
So overhead of one frame in bytes = (7+1+6+6+2+1468+4) ===> 1494 bytes.
