What statement best describes HDLC encapsulation?

HDLC (High-Level Data Link Control) encapsulation is a bit-oriented protocol used for transmitting data over point-to-point and multipoint links. It encapsulates data frames with a specific structure, including a flag byte to denote the start and end of a frame, as well as control and address fields for managing communication. HDLC provides error detection and correction features, making it reliable for data transmission. Its versatility allows it to support various network topologies and communication types.
