Lecture 10: IPv4 Protocol Deep Dive| Packet Structure and Routing| Basic to Advanced Features

In this lecture, we explore the IPv4 protocol, starting with basic terminology: an octet (or byte) is 8 bits, a word is a group of bits (16-bit or 32-bit), and a flag is a one-bit control function. IPv4 packets, known as datagrams, are independent entities carrying sufficient information for routing without relying on previous packets, as defined in RFC 1594.
