IEEE 802
IEEE standards for local area networks (LANs) and metropolitan area networks (MANs). The IEEE specification for LANs breaks the data link layer into two sublayers: the LLC (Logical Link Control) and MAC (Media Access Control). The LLC provides a common interface to the MAC layers, which specify the access method used.

| (networking, standard) | IEEE 802 - The IEEE standards for local area networks. The spanning tree algorithm is defined in IEEE 802.1 (under consideration), Logical Link Control (LLC, the
upper portion of the data link layer) in IEEE 802.2,
Ethernet in IEEE 802.3, Token Bus in IEEE 802.4 and IBM
Token Ring in IEEE 802.5. The equivalent ISO standard is IS 8802. |
