a basic unit of information used by the IP layer to exchange data between two hosts
an IP header followed by a message
a packet that encapsulates source and destination addresses, type of service information, user data, and error correction information
a packet that has no delivery receipt and is called connectionless because IP does not maintain state information about successive datagrams
The basic unit of information passed across an internet, containing source and destination IP address and data.
A piece of a message transmitted over a packet-switching network. In addition to the data being sent, a packet also contains the destination address. In IP networks, datagrams are often called packets.
The basic unit of information passed across the Internet. An IP Datagram is to the Internet as a hardware packet is to a physical network. It contains a source and destination address along with data. Large messages are broken down into a sequence of IP Datagrams. [San Diego State University
A packet of information that is carried over IP. An IP datagram contains a header and data. The header includes the addresses of the source and the destination of the datagram. Other fields in the header help identify and recombine the data with accompanying datagrams at the destination.
The basic unit of the information passed accross an IP Internet. It contains address information and data.
The basic unit of information passed through a TCP/IP network. The datagram header contains source and destination IP addresses.

The fundamental unit of information passed across the Internet. Contains source and destination addresses along with data and a number of fields that define the length of the datagram, the header checksum, and flags to indicate whether the datagram can be or has been fragmented.
The fundamental unit of information passed across the Internet. Contains source and destination addresses along with data and a number of fields which define such things as the length of the datagram, the header checksum, and flags to say whether the datagram is fragmented.
The basic unit of information for Internet transmission.
The basic unit of information passed across the Internet; contains source and destination addresses, the data, and fields that define the length of the datagram, the header checksum, and flags to say whether the datagram can be (or has been) fragmented. An IP datagram is to the Internet what a hardware packet is to a physical network. See also datagram.
