proto_state=01: Typically indicates one-way ICMP traffic or a partially established TCP session.

proto_state=10: Indicates an established TCP session, where the session has completed the three-way handshake and both sides can send and receive data.

proto_state=11: Often indicates a fully established and active bidirectional session.

Explanation of correct answer:

proto_state=10 is the correct indication for an established TCP session as it signifies that the session is fully established and active.

This is a tricky one, but I'm leaning towards option C. It just makes more sense to me that proto_state=10 would be for an established TCP session.

Hmm, I think option C is the right answer. proto_state=10 indicates an established TCP session, not option B.
