BCompressed state
CConstructed state
DConnection state
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Connection state
1. A state table records enough to recognise a flow.
2. Addresses and ports alone do not say how far along it is.
3. State table entries typically include source and destination IP addresses, port numbers and connection state information.
4. So the answer is connection state.
