| Caption: |
In an internet, the protocol software on the source computer constructs
an IP datagram and transmits it to a router
by encapsulating the datagram in a hardware frame. The router
extracts the datagram and retransmits it in a new hardware frame
to the next router on the path to the destination; the destination
extracts the original datagram from the last hardware frame and
delivers the data to the application.
