IP packet inside MAC packet?
Hello
I'm a bit confused about these two protocols. If i send a message from one pc to another in internet, is it first encapsulated into IP packets and after that MAC packets? I've understood that all information is always encapsulated into IP packets in internet traffic. IP packets are used in communication between the two softwares, and MAC packets are used in communication between the two hardwares. |
