Difference between Data Link Control and Data link layer

Data Link Control vs. Data link layer

In the OSI networking model, Data Link Control (DLC) is the service provided by the data link layer. The data link layer, or layer 2, is the second layer of the seven-layer OSI model of computer networking.

Computer network

A computer network is a set of computers sharing resources located on or provided by network nodes.

MAC address

A MAC address (short for media access control address) is a unique identifier assigned to a network interface controller (NIC) for use as a network address in communications within a network segment.

OSI model

The Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model is a reference model from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that "provides a common basis for the coordination of standards development for the purpose of systems interconnection." In the OSI reference model, the communications between systems are split into seven different abstraction layers: Physical, Data Link, Network, Transport, Session, Presentation, and Application.

Transport layer

In computer networking, the transport layer is a conceptual division of methods in the layered architecture of protocols in the network stack in the Internet protocol suite and the OSI model.
