Packet Tracer simulation mode enables you to view each of the layers and the associated PDU. Each piece is assigned a specific name (protocol data unit ) and associated with a specific layer of the TCP/IP and OSI models.
Simulation mode allows you to view the data contents being sent across the network at each layer.Īs data moves through the network, it is broken down into smaller pieces and identified so that the pieces can be put back together when they arrive at the destination.
