It's not an in depth network architecture exam, such as the higher level
Cisco ones, so no you wouldn't really need to know all the different fields,
their lengths and arrangements (and such).

One exception to that rule (there's always an exception) comes with IPSec
and ESP/AH...you gotta know how they're arranged in the header.
