-Destination address (DA) — The DA field is used to identify which network device(s) should receive the packet. It is a unique address. Please see the section of MAC addressing.

-Source addresses (SA) — The SA field indicates the source node. The SA is always an individual address and the left-most bit in the SA field is always 0.

-Length/Type — This field indicates either the number of the data bytes contained in the data field of the frame, or the Ethernet type of data. If the value of first two bytes is less than or equal to 1500 in decimal, the number of bytes in the data field is equal to the Length/Type value, i.e. this field acts as Length indicator at this moment. When this field acts as Length, the frame has optional fields for 802.3/802.2 SNAP encapsulation, 802.3/802.2 encapsulation and Netware 802.3 RAW encapsulation. Each of them has different fields following the Length field.

-If the Length/Type value is greater than 1500, it means the Length/Type acts as Type. Different type value means the frames of different protocols running over Ethernet being sent or received.

For example,

0x0800 IP datagram

0x0806 ARP

0x0835 RARP

0x8137 IPX datagram 0x86DD IPv6

-Data — Less than or equal to 1500 bytes and greater or equal to 46 bytes. If data is less than 46 bytes, the MAC will automatically extend its length by padding bits and have the payload be equal to 46 bytes. The length of data field must equal the value of the Length field when the Length/Type acts as Length.

-Frame check sequence (FCS) This field contains a 32-bit cyclic redundancy check (CRC) value, and is a check sum computed with DA, SA, through the end of the data field with the following polynomial.

-It is created by the sending MAC, and then recalculated by the receiving MAC to check it the packet is valid or not.
