21.6.1 IP Packet Header
These are the fields in an Internet Protocol (IP) version 4 packet header.
Figure 143 IP v4 Packet Headers
The header fields are discussed below:
Table 119 IP v4 Packet Headers
HEADER DESCRIPTION
Version The value 4 indicates IP version 4.
IHL IP Header Length is the number of 32 bit words forming the total
length of the header (usually five).
Type of Service The Type of Service, (also known as Differentiated Services Code
Point (DSCP)) is usually set to 0, but may indicate particular
quality of service needs from the network.
Total Length This is the size of the datagram in bytes. It is the combined length
of the header and the data.
Identification This is a 16-bit number, which together with the source address,
uniquely identifies this packet. It is used during reassembly of
fragmented datagrams.
Flags Flags are used to control whether routers are allowed to fragment
a packet and to indicate the parts of a packet to the receiver.
Fragment Offset This is a byte count from the start of the original sent packet.
Time To Live This is a counter that decrements every time it passes through a
router. When it reaches zero, the datagram is discarded. It is used
to prevent accidental routing loops.
