state.
Ethernet
Ethernet is a frame-based computer networking technology for local area networks (LANs). It defines wiring
and signaling for the physical layer, and frame formats and protocols for the media access control (MAC)/data
link layer of the OSI model. Ethernet is mostly standardized as IEEE 802.3. It has become the most widespread
LAN technology in use during the 1990s to the present.
EtherTalk
A suite of protocols developed by Apple Computer for computer networking. It was included in the original Mac
(1984) and is now deprecated by Apple in favor of TCP/IP networking.
