Looking at the Protocol Hierarchy statistics, only the ‘top level’ protocols are counted. So, an IP header in a ICMP 
packet don’t get added.

You can see that with IPv6, there you can choose to have the IPv6 extension headers under the root tree rather than 
under the IPv6 packet. If you put them under the root, they’ll show up in the Protocol Hierarchy statistics, otherwise 
not.
