TERMINOLOGIES IN NETWORKING

ICMP Protocol
Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is the protocol responsible for
detecting network error conditions and reporting on them. ICMP reports on
• Dropped packets (when packets are arriving too fast to be processed)
• Connectivity failure (when a destination host can’t be reached)
• Redirection (which tells a sending host to use another router)
