Given below a Point-to-point communication trace taken by Wireshark a network protocol analyzer software.
ETHER: ----- Ether Header -----
ETHER:
ETHER: Packet 11 arrived at 17:37:32.18
ETHER: Packet size =54 bytes
ETHER: Destination =0:e0:f7:26:3f:e9
ETHER: Source =8:0:20:86:35:4b
ETHER: Ethertype =0800(IP)
ETHER:
IP: ----- IP Header -----
IP:
IP: Version =4
IP: Header length =20 bytes
IP: Type of service =0x00
IP: xxx.....=0(precedence)
IP: ...0....= normal delay
IP: ....0...= normal throughput
IP: .....0..= normal reliability
IP: Total length =40 bytes
IP: Identification =2236
IP: Flags =0x4
IP: .1......= do not fragment
IP: ..0.....= last fragment
IP: Fragment offset =0 bytes
IP: Time to live =64
IP: Protocol =6
IP: Header checksum =9997
IP: Source address =139.133.217.110
IP: Destination address =139.133.233.2
IP: No options
IP:
TCP: ----- TCP Header -----
TCP:
TCP: Source port =36869
TCP: Destination port =23(TELNET)
TCP: Sequence number =1913975089
TCP: Acknowledgement number =0
TCP: Data offset =20 bytes
TCP: Flags =0x02
TCP: ..0.....= urgent pointer
TCP: ...0....= acknowledgement
TCP: ....0...= push
TCP: .....0..= Reset
TCP: ......1.= Syn
TCP: .......0= Fin
TCP: Window =8760
TCP: Checksum =0xc0c9
TCP: Urgent pointer =0
TCP: No options
TCP:
TCP: No options
Analyse the above trace and indicate the following:
a) The protocol used in each of the following layers: Data Link, Network, Transport and Application.[4]
b) Source and destination MAC addresses[2]
c) Source and destination IP addresses.[2]
d) Source and destination port numbers.[2]
e) Explain the value 0x02 shown in the flags field (highlighted in blue color in the trace) by indication the type of this captured message?[2]
f) Explain the meaning of the value shown in Time to live =64(highlighted in blue color in the trace)?[2]
g) Explain the meaning of the value shown in Protocol =6(highlighted in blue color in the trace)
