2. Carrier-sense multiple access with collision detection

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-sense_multiple...

   However, a user will wait ("back off") for a random amount of time proportional to the number of times it has successively tried to access the link. The channel capture effect happens when one user continues to "win" the link. For example, user A and user B both try to access a quiet link at the same time.

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium_access_control

   The channel access control mechanism relies on a physical layer multiplex scheme. The most widespread multiple access method is the contention-based CSMA/CD used in Ethernet networks. This mechanism is only utilized within a network collision domain, for example, an Ethernet bus network or a hub-based star topology network.

   Key management and the establishment of secure associations is outside the scope of 802.1AE, but is specified by 802.1X-2010.. The 802.1AE standard specifies the implementation of a MAC Security Entities (SecY) that can be thought of as part of the stations attached to the same LAN, providing secure MAC service to the client.

5. Channel access method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_access_method

   A channel access method may also be a part of the multiple access protocol and control mechanism, also known as medium access control (MAC). Medium access control deals with issues such as addressing, assigning multiplex channels to different users and avoiding collisions. Media access control is a sub-layer in the data link layer of the OSI ...

   For example, an ACK message can take up to 60 μs to transmit completely, which includes an amount of airtime sufficient to transmit 3240 bits at 54 Mbit/s, during which it conveys a single bit of relevant information. The IEEE 802.11 standard also defines an optional access method using a point coordination function (PCF).
