Скачать или смотреть Network Datagram Fragmentation Explained | Learn in 6 Mins

The video offers an extensive overview of fragmentation in networking, a necessary technique for handling datagrams that are too large for a particular network to transmit. This process involves the division of large datagrams into smaller fragments at the network layer, either at the source computer or at routers along the path.

The video explains that while fragmentation is crucial, it incurs overhead because the datagram header must be copied onto every fragment, wasting bandwidth.

Finally, the text details how fragmentation is implemented, specifying the role of three key header fields: the Identification Field, the Flag Field (including the do not fragment bit), and the Fragmentation Offset, which helps reassemble the packets.
