; Version : The first header field in an IP [[packet (information technology)|packet]] is the four-bit version field. For IPv4, this has a value of 4 (hence the name IPv4).
 
  
−
; Internet Header Length (IHL) : The second field (4 bits) is the Internet Header Length (IHL), which is the number of 32-bit [[Word (data type)|words]] in the header. Since an IPv4 header may contain a variable number of options, this field specifies the size of the header (this also coincides with the offset to the data). The minimum value for this field is 5 (RFC 791), which is a length of 5×32 = 160 bits = 20 bytes. Being a 4-bit value, the maximum length is 15 words (15×32 bits) or 480 bits = 60 bytes.

:Originally defined as the [[Type of Service]] field, this field is now defined by RFC 2474 for [[Differentiated services]] (DiffServ). New technologies are emerging that require real-time data streaming and therefore make use of the DSCP field. An example is [[Voice over IP]] (VoIP), which is used for interactive data voice exchange.

See RFC 1662 for more details.


HDLC Flag 
(framing) 0x7E, HDLC framing byte. Indicates start of packet.
Ser_Proto (Addr) 
HDLC Address byte. Used to indicate low level serial protocol. Only 0x44 (68), SERIAL_PROTO_PACKET_ACK and 0x43 SERIAL_PROTO_ACK are supported.
Seq_Num (Ctrl)
HDLC Control byte. Used for sequence number. May or may not be present (see NO_TX_SEQNO).
Dispatch (Protocol)
HDLC Protocol byte. Used to indicate payload type.
CRC 
two byte CRC-16, covers all bytes Ser_Proto through last payload byte. This disagrees with TEP 113 (but is from the source code). Transmitted LSB first.
HDLC flag 
(framing) 0x7E, closing flag


The bytes 0x7D and 0x7E may not appear inside the packet. 0x7E is framing and 0x7D is escape. 0x7D -> 0x7D 0x5d and 0x7E -> 0x7D 0x5E.
