Users cannot access a webserver and after the traffic is captured, the capture tool snows an ICMP packet that reports "time exceeded in-transit". What is the cause of this webserver access issue?
A.
The large distance between the server and the users means that the packets require too much time to reach the destination.
B.
A router along the path is misrouting the packets in a wrong direction.
C.
A router along the path has the wrong time.
D.
The server is overloaded and the connection was not able to be processed in time.
If an ICMP packet reports "time exceeded in-transit," the TTL value of the IP packet reached zero. In normal operation, a network should not have a diameter so great that the TTL gets reduced to zero. The most common occurrence of this is when there is a routing loop.
An ICMP packet with a "time exceeded in-transit" message means that the packet has taken too long to reach its destination, and it is being discarded. This can happen if the distance between the server and the users is too large, causing the packets to take too long to reach their destination. This can also happen if there are delays or problems with the network along the path, causing the packets to take longer to reach their destination.
i'm not sure if you are trolling on purpose or just don't know what you are talking about but ICMP has no mechanism to time-out based on how long it takes a packet to be transmitted.
What it does have though is a TTL field, which gets decremented at every L3 hop along the path, a "time exceeded in-transit" means that the TTL has reached 0 and the packet can't be forwarded anymore.
This can occur in a routing loop, which makes B correct.
