I have recently seen in Wireshark when looking at an echo request/reply pair, that instead of the identification/sequence numbers used to tie the two packets together, there are now two identifiers and two sequence numbers:-
 
Identifier (BE): 512 (0x0200)
Identifier (LE): 2 (0x0002)
Sequence number (BE): 4352 (0x1100)
Sequence number (LE): 17 (0x0011)
 
What do the BE & LE signify & how do you use them to tie up the request & reply?
