can anyone please tell me where i can find the sizes of different types of 
packets. example tcp, udp, ack, message, rtproto etc.

in particular, when im manually duplicating a 60 byte tcp pkt and forcibly 
sending it to a non recipient node and then dropping it at that node's LL 
(link layer), the non recipient node automatically returns a 40 byte tcp pkt 
with the SAME seqno (sequence no). but it is defintely a different pkt, as 
it is 40 bytes (not the original 60 bytes) and shows up differently when 
tracked in the nam (network animator).

the configuration of the node is a mobile IP base station in heirarchical 
routing with Mac802.11,
Channel/WirelessChannel and Phy/WirelessPhy.

so, my question is, what is this 40 byte pkt. is it nessecarily tcp (which 
is shown when i click on it)
or something else like MESSAGE pkt.

how is this pkt being automatically generated at the node in response to a 
stray or misguided tcp pkt. and why and where (from which layer) is it being 
generated from, so that i can manually suppress it.

if anyone can tell me where i should suppress it at (mac802.11 functions, 
wirelesschannel functions or wirelessphy functions) or how do i found out 
which function or line is generating that pkt to have the same seqno, i will 
be very grateful.

thanks in advance
