Don't use that reference. It's full of mistakes. It claims that an LLC SAP
is Service Advertising Protocol. It puts the first two bytes of a Novell

I wrote extensively about Ethernet frame types in my Troubleshooting

Cisco has some good references on the subject also.
The CIT class and Cisco Press CIT book do a good job with it. They also
have a bunch of info about your other question, troubleshooting Cat 5000.
