1. Using the Wireshark Protocol Analyzer how were you able to isolate and inspect IP and CDP packets for further analysis? By clicking Disable all and choosing the IP and CDP tabs.
2. In what section of the Wireshark Protocol Analyzer interface is the details of a captured packet frame displayed? Summary window and Wireshark capture option window
3. Draw an IEEE 802.3 frame showing segments and bytes assigned for each segment. Starting Delimiter (1 byte) | Destination Address (6 bytes) | Source Address (6 bytes) | Length (2 bytes) | LLC header and Information field (46 - 1500 bytes) | Frame Check Sequence (4 bytes) |

4. What are the four main speeds of Ethernet? 10mbps, 100mbps (fast Ethernet), 1000mbps (gigabit Ethernet )and 10000mbps (ten gigabit Ethernet).
5. What is the maximum size allocated for information in an IEEE 802.3 Ethernet frame? 1518 bytes max.
6. What is the main difference in the layout of IEEE 802.3 and the Ethernet II frame? In Ethernet II the frame begins with an 8-byte preamble that is used to alert and synchronize the Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC) to the incoming data. For the IEEE 802.3 .The frame begins with a 1-byte preamble followed by a 7-byte start frame delimiter.
7. What is the maximum number of bytes assigned to the “Source address” segment of an IEEE 802.3 frame. 6 bytes (48 bits).
8. What are the differences in the functions of IEEE 802.3 and Ethernet v2 concerning the Layers of the OSI Model? Ethernet v2 provides services corresponding to Layers 1 and 2 of the OSI reference model, and IEEE 802.3 specifies the physical layer (Layer 1) and the channel-access portion of the Data Link (Layer 2). In addition, IEEE 802.3 does not define a logical link control protocol but does not specify several different physical layers, whereas Ethernet defines only one.
9. When retrieving the 5MB file from the
