Which of the following regarding protocol states is true?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Understanding protocol states:

proto_state=00: Indicates no traffic or a closed session.

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.

Seriously, who comes up with these convoluted protocol state names? I'm going with B) just to put this question out of its misery.
