What is the role of the NIC's driver software?
What will be an ideal response?
The NIC's driver software is the interconnection between the hardware and the software. The NIC driver knows how to communicate with the NIC to send and receive frames, but it can't do anything with the packet. Instead, the NIC driver hands the packet off to other services that know how to deal with all the separate packets and turn them into Web pages, e-mail messages, files, and so forth.
