IP addre ss
Each ICMP message contains three fields that define its
purpose and provide a checksum. They are TYPE, CODE, and
CHECKSUM fields. The TYPE field identifies the ICMP message,
the CODE field provides further information about the associated
TYPE field, and the CHECKSUM provides a method for
determining the integrity of the message.
The purpose of these control messages is to provide
feedback about problems in the communication
environment, not to make IP reliable.
