A few of the main topics discussed in Module 1 are:
• ICMP
• IP Fragmentation
• Traceroute
Share any (additional) information not discussed in Module 1 regarding the above topics. For example, the followings topics are not discussed in Module1 but can be used to supplement the concepts and ideas presented in the module.
1. Compare and contrast the differences between Unix (or Linux) and Window Traceroute. All the codes for each ICMP error message are not fully listed and explained.
2. Identify a few scenarios in which ICMP error messages are generated?
3. What available tools employ ICMP or Traceroute? What are the advantages/disadvantages of such tools?
4. Module 1 demonstrates how an IP datagram is fragmented. However, the module does not show an IP reassembly process.
