When an IPV host receives a packet that is addressed to it if the packet does not use UDP or TCP as its upperlayer protocol, how does the host respond?
The destination host will drop the packet and send to the sender the ICMPv error message "Protocol Corrupted or Missing."
The destination host will pass the data to the appropriate protocol running on the host.
The destination host will check the destination port for the packet, and if it does not match a protocol running on the node, it will drop the packet and send the ICMPv error message "Protocol Corrupted or Missing."
The destination host will check the packet's Next Header field, and if no matching application is found, it will send the ICMPv error message "Parameter Problem No Protocol Found" and then drop the packet.
