ICMP Internet Control Message Protocol is a message control and error
reporting protocol between a host server and a router to the Internet.
ICMP uses Internet Protocol (IP) datagrams, but the messages are
processed by the IP software and are not directly apparent to the
application user.
IGMP Internet Group Management Protocol is the standard for IP
multicasting on the Internet. It is used to establish host memberships in
particular multicast groups on a single network. The mechanisms of
