alignment- consists of zeros and is used to pad the datagram header to a length multiple of 32 bits.
Datagram service type Service type field
Specifies the service characteristics of a datagram as it travels over a particular network and is based on both the priority of any datagram in transit and the quality of its transmission, as defined by four subfields.
They are focused on providing an interface between specific application tasks and means of transporting data over the network.
Provide interaction between application processes and determine the form of such interaction.
