What are the source and destination IP addresses of the packet?

To determine the source and destination IP addresses of a packet, you need to analyze the packet's header information. The source IP address is the address from which the packet originated, while the destination IP address is the address to which the packet is being sent. This information is typically found in the IP header of the packet, which is part of the data encapsulated in the network layer of the OSI model. You can examine this using network analysis tools like Wireshark or tcpdump.
