Question

Calculate the HLEN value if the total length is 1200 bytes, 1176 of which is data from upper layer.

Answer 1

Answer:

HLEN  = 6 (in decimal) ,  HLEN  = 0110 (in binary)

Explanation:

Total length is 1200 bytes, 1176 of which is data from upper layer

Header Length  = Total Length - Data Length

Header Length  = 1200 − 1176 = 24

HLEN  = 24 / 4 = 6 (in decimal)

HLEN  = 0110 (in binary)
