I’m pretty confident it’s SYN, SYN/ACK, ACK, but I should double-check my notes just in case.

I feel like I might be mixing up the ACK and SYN/ACK parts. Was it SYN, ACK, SYN/ACK or something else?

I remember practicing a similar question, and I think the correct sequence is SYN, SYN/ACK, ACK.

I think the 3-way handshake starts with a SYN packet, but I'm not sure about the order of the next two.

The 3-way handshake is a key networking concept, so I'll review the steps in my mind to make sure I have the right sequence.

I'm pretty confident I know the 3-way handshake sequence, so I'll go with option A.

I'm going with B. SYN, ACK, SYN/ACK seems like the correct flow for the 3-way handshake.

But the 3-way handshake starts with SYN, then ACK, and finally SYN/ACK to establish a connection.

I disagree, I believe it is A) SYN, ACK, ACK.
