Protocol Layering Concepts and TCP/IP Layering ICSSCADA Practice Questions (Page 5)
Part of the TCP/IP and ICS/SCADA Protocols domain, which makes up ~13% of our current practice bank. EC-Council does not publish an official question count, but from its 120-minute exam (~50–80 total, ~7–10 in this domain), expect 1–2 from this objective — we provide 32 practice questions to prepare you well beyond it.

A network capture shows a TCP segment that is 1460 bytes long. The segment is encapsulated in an IP packet, which is then encapsulated in an Ethernet frame. The engineer notices that the IP packet has the 'Don't Fragment' flag set. What is the maximum size of the IP packet (including the IP header) that can be transmitted without fragmentation on an Ethernet network with a 1500-byte MTU?
