Question
Consider the following statements about the network layer in general and IP routers in particular. Which of the statements are correct? Before an IP packet can be sent, a connection must be established between sender and receiver. If an overloaded router can't accept more packets it will send an ICMP message back to the sender. Fragmentation means that a router which detects bit errors drops packets with errors. Information in an IP header is examined by every router the packet passes through, for example to decide how a packet is to be forwarded. Routers use the identifier field of the IP header to make sure that packets arrive in correct order. A router does not change any information in an IP header. Routers have a buffer memory for temporary storage of IP packets that are passing through the router.Explanation / Answer
