The document examines the contents of an HTTP packet capture. It explores each layer of the OSI model and compares the information displayed to the PDU details. It shows the HTTP request and response, with the request going to port 80 of the destination IP 192.168.1.254. It also displays additional event types like DNS, ARP, TCP when changing the filters. The DNS query resolves to the same destination IP and the TCP connection establishes and then closes after the HTTP response.

Part 1: Examine HTTP Web Traffic

Events should now only display HTTP.


Step 2: Generate web (HTTP) traffic.
d. Click Capture/Forward four times. There should be four events in the Event
List.
Look at the Web Client web browser page. Did anything change?
Yes. It says that “You have successfully accessed the home page for Web Server”.
Step 3: Explore the contents of the HTTP packet.
b. Ensure that the OSI Model tab is selected. Under the Out Layers column, ensure that the
Layer 7 box is highlighted.
What is the text displayed next to the Layer 7 label?
HTTP
What information is listed in the numbered steps directly below the In Layers and Out
Layers boxes?
The HTTP clients sends a HTTP request to the server.
c. Click Next Layer. Layer 4 should be highlighted. What is the Dst Port value?
Dst Port:80

d. Click Next Layer. Layer 3 should be highlighted. What is the Dest. IP value?
Dest. IP value: 192.168.1.254

e. Click Next Layer. What information is displayed at this layer?


Layer 2: Ethernet II Header 0060.47CA.4DEE >> 0001.96A9.401D

f. Click the Outbound PDU Details tab.


What is the common information listed under the IP section of PDU Details as compared to
the information listed under the OSI Model tab? With which layer is it associated?
They have the same value of Src. IP and Dest. IP which is found in Layer 3 OSI Model.
What is the common information listed under the TCP section of PDU Details, as compared
to the information listed under the OSI Model tab, and with which layer is it associated?
They have the same number of SRC Port and Dest port which is found on Layer 4 of OSI
Model
What is the Host listed under the HTTP section of the PDU Details? What layer would this
information be associated with under the OSI Model tab?
Host: www.osi.local . This information is associated under Layer 7 of OSI Model.

h. Comparing the information displayed in the In Layers column with that of the Out Layers
column, what are the major differences?
There values are not the same, example the TCP Src Port of In Layers is 1025 but the TCP
Src Port of Out Layers is 80, which is the value of Destination Port of In Layers. There
values are swapped together.

i. Click the Outbound PDU Details tab. Scroll down to the HTTP section.
What is the first line in the HTTP message that displays?
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
j. Click the last colored square box under the Info column. How many tabs are displayed
with this event and why?
There are only 2 tabs which is the OSI Model and Inbound PDU Details. Because this event
is the last event in the stream of traffic or it is receiving device.

Part 2: Display Elements of the TCP/IP Protocol Suite


Step 1: View Additional Events
b. In the Event List Filters > Visible Events section, click Show All.
What additional Event Types are displayed?
DNS, ARP, TCP and HTTP

d. Click the Outbound PDU Details tab. What information is listed in the NAME: in the DNS
QUERY section?
NAME: www.osi.local

e. Click the last DNS Info colored square box in the event list. Which device is displayed?
The Web client. Only In Layers was displayed.
What is the value listed next to ADDRESS: in the DNS ANSWER section of the Inbound PDU
Details?
ADDRESS: 192.168.1.254
f. Find the first HTTP event in the list and click the colored square box of the TCP event
immediately following this event. Highlight Layer 4 in the OSI Model tab. In the numbered
list directly below the In Layers and Out Layers, what is the information displayed under
items 4 and 5?
4. The TCP connection is successful.
5. The device sets the connection state to ESTABLISHED.
g. Click the last TCP event. Highlight Layer 4 in the OSI Model tab. Examine the steps listed
directly below In Layers and Out Layers. What is the purpose of this event, based on the
information provided in the last item in the list (should be item 4)?
It means that the device sets the connection state to CLOSED.
