Summary
Fragmentation is the process of breaking an IP packet into pieces that are equal to or smaller than the lower MTU.
1
Fragmentation has drawbacks, such as the loss of a single fragment resulting in all the fragments having to be resent when a reliable transport layer protocol such as TCP is in use.

It can be used to capture and analyze fragmented IPv4 traffic, including capturing the traffic, analyzing the outbound and inbound traffic, and calculating the total data length.

Captured traffic can also be discarded.

Summary
Fragmentation is the process of breaking an IP packet into pieces that are equal to or smaller than the lower MTU. This is called Fragmentation and the data in these fragments is then typically reassembled when they reach their destination. Fragmentation has a number of drawbacks which result in it’s use being avoided where possible, such as the loss of a single fragment results in all the fragments having to be resent where a reliable transport layer protocol such as TCP is in use.

Summary
Wireshark is a free and open source packet analyzer used for network troubleshooting and analysis. This activity explains how to capture and analyze fragmented IPv4 traffic, including how to capture the traffic, analyze the outbound and inbound traffic, and calculate the total data length. Finally, the activity demonstrates how to discard the captured traffic.

The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is one of the main protocols of the Internet protocol suite. It originated in the initial network implementation in which it complemented the Internet Protocol (IP). Therefore, the entire suite is commonly referred to as TCP/IP. TCP provides reliable, ordered, and error-checked delivery of a stream of octets (bytes) between applications running on hosts communicating via an IP network. Major internet applications such as the World Wide Web, email, remote administration, and file transfer rely on TCP, which is part of the Transport Layer of the TCP/IP suite. SSL/TLS often runs on top of TCP.
