ERRATA
Forouzan, ed.4, Student Solutions to Practice Sets (PDF files on the books website)
Subject Process-to-process delivery, TCP Real-time interactive audio/video Question 23.21 29.11 29.13 IPv4, IPv6, transition from IPv4 to IPv6 20.11 20.23 Error / correction The packet never reaches the TCP layer. It is dropped at either the MAC or the IP layer. The packets left are wrong. They should be: (a) 3; (b) 3; (c) 3; (d) 1. You can find the erratum to this question on our exercises page. Timestamps are a feature of RTP, not UDP. Checksum has to be recalculated, too, whenever one of these fields change. In the question, the 4 digits for flags and fragmentation need to be swapped with the 4 digits for checksum in order to match the given solution.
