    "len" is probably length, not sure what "forus packet" means.

    The len 60 is the length in bytes like Colby said. Not sure what the forus is either though.

    EDIT: Just a guess, but it seems like it might be a CPU interrupt to send the packet maybe...

    thank you gentlemen (or ladies). I appreciate your knowledge.

    Actually, I think it means it's processing the packet it received... the packet was for us. I could be wrong, but that's what just clicked in my head.

    Yeah that makes more sense.

    binari,

    For your "forus packet" question, check out PDF page 13 of 39 in the following document titled "ISP Infrastructure & Operational Security"

    Nice find. I looked for a few minutes but couldn't find anything.

    The len 60 is the length in bytes like Colby said.

    The length here is most likely just the length of the datagram as represented in the IP header.
