Wireshark Lab: TCP v6.0Supplement to Computer Networking: A Top-DownApproach, 6th ed., J.F. Kurose and K.W. Ross“Tell me and I forget. Show me and I remember. Involve me and Iunderstand.” Chinese proverb© 2005-21012, J.F Kurose and K.W. Ross, All Rights ReservedIn this lab, we’ll investigate the behavior of the celebrated TCP protocol in detail. We’lldo so by analyzing a trace of the TCP segments sent and received in transferring a 150KBfile (containing the text of Lewis Carrol’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland) from yourcomputer to a remote server. We’ll study TCP’s use of sequence and acknowledgementnumbers for providing reliable data transfer; we’ll see TCP’s congestion controlalgorithm – slow start and congestion avoidance – in action; and we’ll look at TCP’sreceiver-advertised flow control mechanism. We’ll also briefly consider TCP connectionsetup and we’ll investigate the performance (throughput and round-trip time) of the TCPconnection between your computer and the server.Before beginning this lab, you’ll probably want to review sections 3.5 and 3.7 in thetext1.1. Capturing a bulk TCP transfer from your computer to a remoteserverBefore beginning our exploration of TCP, we’ll need to use Wireshark to obtain a packettrace of the TCP transfer of a file from your computer to a remote server. You’ll do so byaccessing a Web page that will allow you to enter the name of a file stored on yourcomputer (which contains the ASCII text of Alice in Wonderland), and then transfer thefile to a Web server using the HTTP POST method (see section 2.2.3 in the text).
