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.

Wait, is UDP traffic supposed to flow in both directions when proto_state=00? That doesn't sound right to me.

Haha, proto_state=01 for one-way ICMP traffic? That's a good one! Definitely not the right answer.
