hi,
i need to know what was the RFC or protocol specification that ethereal
follows for ICMP protocol. could u please help me out.
i just had a traffic file which decoded by ethereal shows ICMP error
message returning a payload which is against RFC 792
The payload returned by ICMP error message (destination host unreachable)
should be IP header+ 8 bytes but ethereal decodes (IP header + more than 8
bytes)








regards
