If record route option is present, routers might add their IP address information into IP header as the packet goes ahead.

Hi rkruz,

MAC addresses are not included in the IP header. Is there anything
special about the placket, such as an optional header or IPSec? Some
fields in the optional header can change (if specified/present *and*
honored by the hardware) such as timestamps.

How do IP packets change as they pass between 2 routers. If I mirrored the output port of each router and captured the conversation packets with Wireshark, would both captures look the same with the exception of the MAC address and the TTL value?
