D. Type of Service
E. Total Length
Answer Posted / guest
Answer: A, B & C
The following are the fields in an IP segment,
their length, and their definitions:
VERS (Version number - 16 bits)
HLEN (Number of 32-bit words in the header - 4 bits)
Type of Server (How the datagram should be handled - 32 bits)
Total Length (Total length of header and data - 32 bits)
Identification (Provide fragmentation of datagrams to allow
different MTUs in the internet - 4 bits)
Flags (Provide fragmentation of datagrams to allow different
MTUs in the internet - 4 bits)
Frag Offset (Provide fragmentation of datagrams to allow
different MTUs in the internet - 6 bits)
TTL (Time-To-Live - 6 bits)
Protocol (Upperlayer protocol sending the datagram - 16 bits)
Header Checksum )Integrity check on the header - 16 bits)
Source IP Address (32 bits)
Destination IP Address (32 bits)
IP Options (network testing, debugging, security and others
- 4 bits)
Data (4 bits).
