A.  Runs at Layer 3 of the OSI model

B.  Operates at the Data Link layer of the OSI model

C.  The recipient of the frame detects the error

D.  The sender of the frame detects the error, which in turn saves valuable bandwidth.



3.  Which of the following best describes the capabilities of the Frame Check Sequence?

A.  It performs error recovery but not detection.

B.  The FCS can perform both error detection and recovery.

C.  The FCS can detect an error, but it's not responsible for recovery.

Now let's get to those answers....


1.  Making sure the remote partner is available is the job of the Application layer.


2.  B, C.  The Frame Check Sequence runs at the Data Link layer, and it's the recipient of the frame that actually performs the error detection.


3.  "C".  The previous question gave you a hint!  The FCS can aid in error detection, but it doesn't perform error recovery.
