Explanation:
Step one
The maximum size of data field in each fragment = 480
(because there are 20 bytes IP header) Thus the number of required
fragments [tex]=\frac{1600-20}{480} \\\\= \frac{1580}{480} \\\\=3.29\\\\[/tex]
thus the number of required fragment is 4
Step two
Each fragment will have identification number 291. each fragment except the last one will be of size 500 bytes (including IP header). the offset of the fragments will be 0, 60, 120, 180. each of the first 3 fragments will have
flag = 1; the last fragment will have flag =0
Using the appropriate formula, the number of fragments which would be present in the datagram to be sent would be 4
The minimum length of IP header = 20 bytes
Maximum transmission unit (mtu) = 500 bytes
Hence, the payload would be calculated thus :
mtu - header ;Payload = 500 - 20 = 480Hence, the maximum size of data field per Fragment = 480 bytes
The number of fragments required :
[tex]\frac{datagram \: size - Header \: size}{payload} [/tex][tex] Number \: of \: fragments = \frac{1600 - 20}{480} = 3.29[/tex]
Hence, the number of fragments is 4
Size per Fragment would be 500 bytes each ; the last Fragment would be about 100 bytes Each Fragment would bear the identification number 291.Learn more : https://brainly.com/question/16289731
