ETHERNET NETWORKS

Rad predstavlja razvoj Ethernet mreža i standarda kroz povijest. U radu se opisuje izvorna Ethernet mreža koju su prvotno postavili znanstvenici Robert M. Metcalfe i njegov kolega David R. Boggs te primjenu riješenja za otkrivanje kolizije paketa. Drugi dio rada se odnosi na CSMA sustave, njihov rad i primjenu kao i na IEEE standarde, posebice IEEE 802.3. U zadnjem dijelu rada se nalazi objašnjenje IEEE okvira, razlika između izvornog DIX okvira i IEEE okvira te dodatke i primjenu IEEE standarda.This paper presents the development of Ethernet networks and standards. It describes the experimental version of Ethernet network developed and implemented by scientists Robert M. Metcalfe and David R. Boggs as well as solutions used to detect packet collision. The second part of the paper puts an emphasis on CSMA systems and IEEE standards and gives a detailed overview of IEEE 802.3 standards. The final part aims to describe IEEE frame and its main difference from DIX frame, including an overview of Ethernet speeds that are defined and used with IEEE standards
