2. Congestion
What is Congestion?
Definition of Congestion
Network congestion occurs when there is an excessive amount
of data traffic on a network segment, causing delays, packet
loss, and degraded performance.
Illustrated diagram showing a congested network segment.
5. Congestion
Flow Control in Congestion Avoidance
Flow control mechanisms help regulate data transmission to
prevent congestion.
Example: TCP's congestion control algorithms.
6. Data Link Control in Communication Networks:
What is Data Link Control?
Definition of Data Link Control
Data Link Control (DLC) is the second layer of the OSI model
responsible for reliable data transfer.
DLC ensures error detection, correction, and frame
synchronization
7. Data Link Control in Communication Networks:
Data Link Layer Protocols
Ethernet
PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol)
HDLC (High-Level Data Link Control)
8. Data Link Control in Communication Networks:
Error Detection and Correction
Data link control uses techniques like CRC (Cyclic Redundancy
Check) to detect and correct errors in transmitted data.
9. Framing
Framing in Data Link Control
Frames are used to encapsulate data for transmission.
Data is organized into frames for reliable delivery.
10. Flow Control at Data Link Layer
Flow Control in Data Link Control
Flow control mechanisms like sliding window and stop-and-wait
are employed to manage the flow of data between sender and
receiver.
