This document provides instructions for a lab assignment on TCP sequence numbers. The objectives are to learn how TCP uses sequence (SEQ) and acknowledgement (ACK) numbers to provide reliability and how the window field is applied. Students will use Wireshark to capture packets between computers and observe the changing SEQ and ACK numbers. They are to write a report analyzing the SEQ, ACK, and window field values and include display filters, screenshots, and citations. The report is due by October 13th.

ACADEMIC UNIT: F.C.B.I
COURSE: Telecommunications II
LAB ASSIGNMENT Nº 4: TCP Sequence Numbers
1. OBJECTIVES
1.1 Learn how through the SEQ and ACK numbers TCP performs reliability.
1.2 Learn how the Window field is applied
1.2 Learn how to use Wireshark to see the change in the ACK and SEQ numbers.
2. PRELIMINARY STUDY
Prior to starting this assignment the student should know the functions of the TCP segment fields Window, ACK,
and SEQ. The student should also know how to make Wireshark display filters to select the segments of interest
from the capture file.

3. THEORY
TCP/IP guide chapter 45-47

TCP Sequence Numbers


 Wireshark.

5. METHODOLOGY
a. Open Wireshark in a computer connected to a network.
b. Start capturing the packets that pass through the Ethernet interface.
c. Open and web page; one of your preference.
d. Download a file
e. Allow wireshark to capture packets for 10 minutes.

f. Close the web page and the web browser.

g. Stop the capture and save it.

h. By means of display filters show the SEQ and ACK.

6. RESULTS
Include the following ítems in the report.
 Display filters
 Screenshots showing the SEQ and ACK numbers.
 Analysis of the SEQ and ACK numbers.
 Analysis of the Window field.

Send the report in PDF format to the email address [email protected] by October 13th,
otherwise it won’t be evaluate and your grade on this assignment will be 0. In the subject of email please write
