Answer»

Correct choice is (c) 10

The EXPLANATION: TTL stands for Time to Live. This FIELD specifies the life of the IP packet based on the number of hops it MAKES (Number of routers it goes through). TTL field is decremented by one each time the DATAGRAM is processed by a router. When the value is 0, the packet is AUTOMATICALLY destroyed.
