Yes, HDLC (High-Level Data Link Control) can be used as a data link protocol for a LAN in
Java, although it is not as common as Ethernet. Implementing HDLC would require creating the necessary frame structure and ensuring proper error detection and flow control. While
Java provides libraries for network programming, you might need to implement HDLC-specific functionalities, as most LANs typically use Ethernet protocols. Thus, using HDLC could be viable but may not be practical for standard LAN applications.
