Hi Pascal,

Thanks. Also correction its 8 bytes not bits.

Thanks for analysis. However, my original query still remains
unanswered which was how these offset values are calc in first place.
For for 1480 bytes of data the first offset value taking 8-bytes
should be 185. If yes why is same not represented in screen-shot
shown.

Regards,


Hi,

please see my response on ask. No need to duplicate the questions.

Best regards,
Pascal.

Hello,

A certain wireshark sample for icmp fragmentation (attached) is
showing following :-

-fragment offset:13bits
-offset value ordering as :-
        - 0
        - 1480
        - 2960

-length 1518.

From , theory I know usual 8 bytes of offset field will start
calculating offset from 0, then for 1400 bytes of data (minus the
headers) next value be 1400/8. If I apply same concept to attached
pcap It doesn't add up. Why offset values so different even when
considering 1500 bytes of data.

Thanks.
