Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A packet is a unit of data that is transmitted between devices on a network. A packet can also be referred to as a datagram, which is a unit of data that includes not only the payload (the data being sent) but also header information such as the source and destination address. TCP segment, data payload and IP segment are all related to specific layers of the network stack and are not synonymous with a packet.
