limite de saltos
1. A networking parameter that specifies the maximum number of hops (intermediate nodes or routers) a data packet can traverse before being discarded
The hop limit was set to 64 to prevent packets from circulating indefinitely in the network.
O limite de saltos foi definido como 64 para evitar que os pacotes circulem indefinidamente na rede.
2. In IPv6, equivalent to the Time To Live (TTL) field in IPv4, used to prevent routing loops
Each router decrements the hop limit by one before forwarding the packet.
Cada roteador decrementa o limite de saltos em um antes de encaminhar o pacote.
This is primarily a technical term used in computer networking and information technology. It is commonly used in both Brazilian and Portuguese technical documentation, though it is often retained in English even in Portuguese-language materials due to the international standardization of networking protocols. The concept is fundamental to IPv6 protocol design and routing infrastructure.
