    Uploaded by

    Nguyễn Văn Quốc
    The document summarizes the results of a student's DHCP lab experiment analyzing DHCP messages using Wireshark. Key findings include: - DHCP messages are sent over UDP. The first four messages (Discover, Offer, Request, ACK) all had the same Transaction ID. - The student's host MAC address was 38:ba:f8:68:84:74. The DHCP server offered IP address 172.20.14.236 in the Offer message. - There was no relay agent involved. The lease time was set to 18600 seconds. The purpose of the lease time is to assign IP addresses to clients for a specified duration.

    Computer Networks Lab 4b

    Wireshark Lab: DHCP v8.0

    1. Are DHCP messages sent over UDP or TCP?

    DHCP messages are sent over UDP (User Datagram Protocol )


    2. Draw a timing datagram illustrating the sequence of the first four-packet
    Discover/Offer/Request/ACK DHCP exchange between the client and server. For
    each packet, indicated the source and destination port numbers. Are the port
    numbers the same as in the example given in this lab assignment?

    3. What is the link-layer (e.g., Ethernet) address of your host?

    Address of my host is (38:ba:f8:68:84:74)

    4. What values in the DHCP discover message differentiate this message from the
    DHCP request message?
    DHCP Message Type and Column Info

    5. What is the value of the Transaction-ID in each of the first four


    (Discover/Offer/Request/ACK) DHCP messages? What are the values of the
    Transaction-ID in the second set (Request/ACK) set of DHCP messages? What is
    the purpose of the Transaction-ID field?

    First four (Discover/Offer/Request/ACK) DHCP messages :

    Discover :0xff1d81f3

    Offer:0xff1d81f3

    Request:0xff1d81f3

    ACK:0xff1d81f3
    Second two (Request/ACK) DHCP messages :

    Request:0xb290d9fb

    ACK:0xb290d9fb

    The transaction ID identifies if a message is part of a set of messages related to one


    transaction

    6. A host uses DHCP to obtain an IP address, among other things. But a host’s IP
    address is not confirmed until the end of the four-message exchange! If the IP
    address is not set until the end of the four-message exchange, then what values
    are used in the IP datagrams in the four-message exchange? For each of the four
    DHCP messages (Discover/Offer/Request/ACK DHCP), indicate the source and
    destination IP addresses that are carried in the encapsulating IP datagram.

    Discover: source 0.0.0.0 Destination 255.255.255.255

    Offer: source 172.16.0.1 Destination 255.255.255.255

    Request: source 0.0.0.0 Destination 255.255.255.255

    Ack: DHCP172.16.0.1 Destination 255.255.255.255

    7. What is the IP address of your DHCP server?

    172.16.0.1

    8. What IP address is the DHCP server offering to your host in the DHCP Offer
    message? Indicate which DHCP message contains the offered DHCP address.
    The DHCP server offered the IP address 172.20.14.236 to my client machine

    The DHCP message with “DHCP Message Type(Offer) contained that.

    9. In the example screenshot in this assignment, there is no relay agent between


    the host and the DHCP server. What values in the trace indicate the absence of a
    relay agent? Is there a relay agent in your experiment? If so what is the IP
    address of the agent?

    The ip address being 0.0.0.0 indicates the absence of a relay agent. There is no relay
    agent in my experiment.

    10. Explain the purpose of the router and subnet mask lines in the DHCP offer
    message.
    The router line indicates to the client what its default gateway should be. The subnet
    mask line tells the client which subnet mask it should use.

    11. In the DHCP trace file noted in footnote 2, the DHCP server offers a specific
    IP address to the client (see also question 8. above). In the client’s response to the
    first server OFFER message, does the client accept this IP address? Where in the
    client’s RESPONSE is the client’s requested address?

    The client does not accepted this


    12. Explain the purpose of the lease time. How long is the lease time in your
    experiment?

    The lease time in my experiment is 18600s. The purpose of this is the amount of time
    the DHCP server assigns an IP address to a client.

    13. What is the purpose of the DHCP release message? Does the DHCP server
    issue an acknowledgement of receipt of the client’s DHCP request? What would
    happen if the client’s DHCP release message is lost?

    A DHCP release message is sent by the client to to cancel the lease on an IP address
    given to it by the DHCP server.

    The DHCP server does not send a message back to the client acknowledging the
    DHCP Release message.

    If the DHCP Release message from the client is lost, the DHCP server would have to
    wait until the lease period is over for that IP address until it could reuse it for another
    client
    14. Clear the bootp filter from your Wireshark window. Were any ARP packets
    sent or received during the DHCP packet-exchange period? If so, explain the
    purpose of those ARP packets.

    No
