Question

This protocol’s sole presence in layer 3 of the OSI model gives it the nickname “narrow waist.” For 10 points each:
[10e] Name this network-layer protocol, which is paired with the Transmission Control Protocol in a common packet switching communications scheme. Currently, both of this protocol’s “v4” and “v6” versions are active.
ANSWER: Internet Protocol [or IP; accept TCP/IP; accept IPv4 or IPv6]
[10m] Packets sent over the TCP/IP suite consist of a header, or overhead, and this other component, the body of data transmitted. In cybersecurity, this technical term refers to the part of the code that performs the malicious act.
ANSWER: payload
[10h] The TCP/IP suite follows this design principle of packet switching networks. A seminal 1984 paper by Saltzer, Reed, and Clark outlines this principle that implements reliability measures at the hosts, rather than the switches.
ANSWER: end-to-end principle [or end-to-end argument; accept fate-sharing]
