Data Link Layer

Packages data into frames and transmits those frames on the network.

Media Access Controll (MAC)

Physical addressing system of a device which operates on a logical topology.

Logical Link Control (LLC)

Provides connection services and allows acknoledgement of receipt of messages.

Isochronous

Networking devices use a common reference clock source and create time slots for transmission.

Synchronous

Network devices agree on clocking method too indicate beginning and end of frames and can use control charactrers.

Asynchronous

Network devices reference internal clock and use start and stop bits for synchronization.
