An Example for Fragmentation of IPv4

IPv4 fragmentation refers to the process of dividing an Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) packet into smaller fragments to fit within the maximum transmission unit (MTU) of a network link. The need for fragmentation arises when the size of the original packet exceeds the maximum size that can be transmitted over a particular network link.
