the ratio of the number of delivered data packet to the destination. This illustrates the level of delivered data to the destination.∑ Number of packet receive / ∑ Number of packet send
If a device receives a packet which is larger than it is set to forward, it will split the packet and pad the part packet with zeros. This increases the number of packets transmitted on the next hop.
A number that is produced by a mathematical calculation on a packet at its source and checked against the same calculation at the destination is used as an error checking mechanism. What is this number known as?
packet of crisps weight = weigh of a crisp * number of crisps
Up to 25 destinations can be listed in a single RIP packet.
People say there is hidden KKK on the packet, and if you open the packet you see the number 76 somewere inside the packet. Some say it means 1876 when Ku Klux Klan were created.
A packet will not go around networks endlessly because it has a field in the header called the TTL field. This is a number that limits the number of hops or networks a packet will be forwarded to.
They are not the same; a port number indicates a listening program that will receive a packet. That number exists on the target system, but the port number itself has no identification that would allow a packet to be routed or delivered to it. An IP address identifies a system on a network for delivery purposes. Once the packet arrives, however, it has to be given to an appropriate program listening for a protocol. that is what the port number is for.

It acknowledges receipt of the previous packet in the sequence.
