What is ICMP used for?
to send error messages to send control messages
Which ICMP message contain part of the ip datagram?
All ICMP Error Messages
Protocol used for reporting the error occurred during the datagram transfer is called?
ICMP- Internet Control Message Protocol
What is the function of ICMP?
To handle error messages when a message does not reach it's destination. To announce timeouts and network congestion.
Why there is restriction on generation of an ICMP message to a failed ICMP error message?
ICMP messages are of interest both to end-hosts and intermediate routers, although some messages are generally only sent by routers. It is never permissible for an ICMP error message to be generated as the result of receiving an ICMP error message-this avoids the infinite recursion of ICMP message generation (see RFC 1122, related link.). It is also forbidden to send an ICMP message as the result of a datagram that references multiple hosts, such as a broadcast or multicast message, or upon receipt of a noninitial fragment (see the "IP Fragmentation" section earlier in the chapter). These restrictions are designed to prevent broadcast storms.
Is icmp a routing protocol?
No, ICMP is not a routing protocol. ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) is used by the Internet Protocol suite (IP) to send error and status messages. It is mainly used for diagnostics. Ping and traceroute are two tools that use ICMP. ICPM is used by routing protocols, for routing advertisements and router discovery.
Is used to relay query messages?
ICMP
What Is used to relay query messages?
ICMP
What protocol allows hosts to exchange messages to indicate problems with packet delivery?
ICMP The Internet Message Protocol (ICMP) allows hosts to exchange messages to indicate the status of a packet as it travels through the network.
How do you fix icmp?
The question does not make sense; ICMP isn't broken - it is the protocol for informing other devices or users that there are problems on the network, or for control messages in general.
Which protocol allows host to exchange messages to indicate problems with packet delivery?
ICMP
Which protocols does the ping program never use to carry its messages?
ping uses the ICMP protocol.
