Which two pieces of information are collected from the IPv4 protocol header?

The IPv4 protocol header contains various fields that provide essential information for routing and delivery of packets across an IP network. Two key pieces of information collected from the IPv4 header are the source IP address and the destination IP address of the packet. These addresses are crucial for identifying where a packet is coming from and where it is intended to go12.

References := The structure and fields of the IPv4 header, including the source and destination IP addresses, are explained in detail in networking resources and documentation, such as the ComputerNetworkingNotes tutorial on IPv4 Header Structure1, and the Engineering LibreTexts on the IPv4 Header2.
