Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Ethernet is the traditional technology for connecting devices in a wired local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN). It enables devices to communicate with each other via a protocol, which is a set of rules or common network language.

Detailed explanation-2: -Ethernet (/ˈiːərnɛt/) is a family of wired computer networking technologies commonly used in local area networks (LAN), metropolitan area networks (MAN) and wide area networks (WAN). It was commercially introduced in 1980 and first standardized in 1983 as IEEE 802.3.

Detailed explanation-3: -Ethernet transmits data packets in this data link layer by using an algorithm called CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection). CSMA/CD is used as a standard for Ethernet to reduce data collisions and increase successful data transmission.
