1. What is the 48-bit Ethernet address of your computer?

Sol: the Ethernet address of my computer is 00:27:10:d6:0b:48


2. What is the 48-bit destination address in the Ethernet frame? Is this the Ethernet address of
gaia.cs.umass.edu? (Hint: the answer is no). What device has this as its Ethernet address?
Sol: The destination address is c0:c1:c0:27:b7:a6.It is not the Ethernet address of respective site.
It is the Ethernet address of local cisco router used by me.
4. How many bytes from the very start of the Ethernet frame does the ASCII “G” in “GET” appear
in the Ethernet frame?
Sol: 515 bytes
6. What is the value of the Ethernet source address? Is this the address of your computer, or of
gaia.cs.umass.edu (Hint: the answer is no). What device has this as its Ethernet address?
Sol: value of Ethernet source address is c0:c1:c0:27:b7:a6. It is not the ip address of respective
site. Cisco-li_27:b7:a6
9. How many bytes from the very start of the Ethernet frame do the ASCII “O” in
“OK” (i.e., the HTTP response code) appear in the Ethernet frame?
Sol: 391 bytes
11. Write down the contents of your computer’s ARP cache. What is the meaning of each
column value?
Sol: internet address column contains the ip address, the physical address column contains the
mac address, and the type indicates the protocol type(state of ip).
12. What are the hexadecimal values for the source and destination addresses in the Ethernet frame
containing the ARP request message?

Sol: Hexadecimal values for the source addresses in the Ethernet frame containing the ARP request
message is c0:c1:c0:27:b7:a6 and destination address is ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff .
14. a) How many bytes from the very beginning of the Ethernet frame does the ARP opcode field begin?

Sol:42 bytes
b) What is the value of the opcode field within the ARP-payload part of the Ethernet frame in which an
ARP request is made?

Sol: 0x0001
c) Does the ARP message contain the IP address of the sender?

Sol: yes it contains the ip address of the sender


d) Where in the ARP request does the “question” appear – the Ethernet address of the machine whose
corresponding IP address is being queried?

Sol: target mac address is set to 00:00:00:00:00:00 to question the machine whose corresponding ip
address (192.168.1.138) is being queried.
15. Now find the ARP reply that was sent in response to the ARP request.
a) How many bytes from the very beginning of the Ethernet frame does the ARP opcode field begin?
Sol: 42 bytes
b) What is the value of the opcode field within the ARP-payload part of the Ethernet frame in which an
ARP response is made?
c)where in the ARP message does the “answer” to the earlier ARP request appear – the IP address of the
machine having the Ethernet address whose corresponding IP address is being queried?

Sol: sender mac address is c0:c1:c0:27:b7:a6


16. What are the hexadecimal values for the source and destination addresses in the Ethernet frame
containing the ARP reply message?

Sol: Hexadecimal source address is c0:c1:c0:27:b7:a6

Hexadecimal destination address is 00:27:10:d6:0b:48
