Michelle,

You are questioning what does "1000011011011101" mean in the EthernetII 
Header.  The other fields deserve explanation, too.

I propose the following text:

>    Ethernet II Fields:
>
>    o  Destination Ethernet Address: the MAC destination address.
>
>    o  Source Ethernet Address: the MAC source address.
>
>    o  "1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 1 0 1": binary representation of the
>       EtherType value 0x86DD.
>
>    o  IPv6 header and payload: the IPv6 packet containing IPv6 header
>       and payload.
