The maximum segment size for TCP by default is 536.A TCP segment's header may contain 20 to 60 bytes. Options are 40 bytes in size. Sequence numbers 140 and 170 are assigned to the first and second segments, respectively.

What size is a TCP segment in bytes?

  • A TCP segment is made up of the data bytes that need to be transferred and the header that TCP appends to the data as shown: A TCP segment's header may contain 20 to 60 bytes. Options are 40 bytes in size. A header is 20 bytes if there are no options; otherwise, it can be up to 60 bytes.
  • The maximum segment size for TCP by default is 536. The maximum segment size is supplied as a TCP option, initially in the TCP SYN packet during the TCP handshake, if a host chooses to change it from the default value. After the connection is made, the value cannot be modified.
  • Let's say Host A uses a TCP connection to deliver Host B two TCP segments, one after the other. Sequence numbers 140 and 170 are assigned to the first and second segments, respectively.
