10: TCP Ack + Data

This is one of a series of 9 packets corresponding to the setup and clear-down of a TCP connection. In this case the conenction was made to the telent (terminal) port of the remote computer. The computer accepts the connection and produces a login prompt to the client. Instead of proceeding to login to the server, the client then decides to terminate the connection.

This packet carries an acknwoledgement to received data aby the server nd a small volume of data from the higher layer protocols at the server destined for the client. Note the slightly larger size of the Ethernet frame.
