The hop limit is the maximum number of hops, or routers, a packet can traverse before being discarded. It prevents packets from circulating endlessly in the network and ensures efficient use of network resources. The other options, hop count and time to live, are also related to packet forwarding and limiting their propagation in the network, but they are not the specific term for a network limit on copying packets.
