How does IP layer keep the packets from getting misplaced or collected out of orders?

The IP adds a header of control information to each segment recieved from the TCP in order to form the IP datagram or IP packet. The data can be fragmented to smaller packets if necessary.


What is IP datagram fragmentation and MTU?

IP datagram can be used to describe a portion of IP data. Each IP datagram has set of fields arranged in an order. The order is specific which helps to decode and read the stream easily. IP datagram has fields like Version, header length, Type of service, Total length, checksum, flag, protocol, Time to live, Identification, source and destination ip address, padding, options and payload. MTU:- Maximum Transmission Unit is the size of the largest packet that a communication protocol can pass. The size can be fixed by some standard or decided at the time of connection Fragmentation is a process of breaking the IP packets into smaller pieces. Fragmentation is needed when the datagram is larger than the MTU. Each fragment becomes a datagram in itself and transmitted independently from source. When received by destination they are reassembled.

What happen during segmentation in transport layer protocol?

The original data stream is broken into pieces, called "segments"; each segment is numbered (numbering is by bytes, not by segments). Other header information is added too, for example, the origin and destination port numbers.The original data stream is broken into pieces, called "segments"; each segment is numbered (numbering is by bytes, not by segments).

When a server responds to a web request what occurs next in the encapsulation process after the web page data is formatted and separated into TCP segment?
