C. Time to live (TTL) represents this value.
The Time to Live (TTL) value is a field in the IP header of a packet that tells the number of hops (or routers) a packet can pass through before it is discarded. The TTL is typically set to a high value, such as 64 or 128, when a packet is first sent, and it is decremented by one each time the packet passes through a router. When the TTL value reaches zero, the packet is discarded, and a "time exceeded" message is sent back to the sender. This mechanism is used to prevent packets from traversing a network indefinitely, which could cause network congestion and slow down the network.
Time to Live (TTL) IP header field is decreased by at least 1.
This could be greater if the router is congested. The TTL is nominally the number
of seconds a packet can stay on the network before being discarded
