  3. Configure the following settings:
  • IP Version—The IP Version of your packet type. Note: ARP is IPv4 only.

    IP Parameters

    IPv4

    DSCP: 0 - 63

    Identification: set value or random

    TTL: 1 - 255

    DF: 0 - 1

    MF: 0 - 1

    Fragment Offset: 0 - 8189

    IPv6

    DSCP: 0 - 63

    Hop Limit: 1 - 255

    Fragment: toggle on/off
