view hint for question 5

Explanation:

IP (Internet Protocol) is a connection - less protocol. This means that each IP packet is treated independently. Networks can have multiple paths (routing) for packets to travel. Different packets may take different paths. For example, one packet might take a shorter path with less congestion initially, while another packet might be delayed due to congestion on its path. There is no mechanism in the basic IP protocol to ensure that packets arrive in the order they were sent.

Answer:

False
