Networking Group Assignment

This document contains details of a networking group assignment for a third semester networking course. It includes: 1. A task to design a small office network with two departments connected by routers, switches, and a shared printer. IP addresses were assigned to routers and DHCP pools were used to assign host addresses. 2. A task to capture ICMP packets using Wireshark when pinging websites from a PC. The IP addresses of yahoo.com and google.com were retrieved but the MAC addresses shown were the same, because Wireshark only shows the local gateway MAC, not the actual remote host MAC.

Task 1

Fig 1: Small Office Network with two different departments

In this task, we created a small office network that has two departments they are, sales
department and service department. For this, First of all, we manage all the devices to create
office network and connect those devices using suitable cables. There are two routers, one is
for sales department and another is for service department as shown in figure above. There is
also a switch connects five host computers and the router in sales department and another
switch in service department connects five host computers, the router of sales department and
a printer. Two routers of different two departments are connected through a cross-over cable as
above figure.

After connecting physical devices, we assigned ip address to each port of routers. We


assigned 192.168.1.1 (made dhcp pool so that each hosts of sales department receives the ip
address of automatically), and 192.168.2.1 ip addresses to the ports fastEthernet 0/0 and
fastEthernet 0/1 of router of sales department respectively.

Similarly, we assigned 192.168.3.1(made dhcp pool so that each host of service department
receives the ip address automatically), and 192.168.2.2 ip addresses to the ports
FastEthernet 0/0 and fastEthernet 0/1 of router of service department respectively.

The switch of sales department is connected to port FastEthernet 0/0 of router of sales
department and the switch of service department is connected to port FastEthernet 0/0 of
router of service department. And the both routers are connected to port fastEthernet 0/1 of
each others. We setup ip route in both routers so that each host of sales department can
communicate with each host of service department and vice versa.

We connect a central/common printer to switch of service department as we know, due to ip


route setup; each host of sales department can also get access to the same printer. So,
adjustment of printer in any one of the department, either in sales or service department,
each and every hosts of entire network can easily access it if we setup ip route in routers.
Task 2 Step
1

Retrieving PC interface Address

Networking Group Assignment 3

The ip address of my PC is 192.168.1.1.

The physical address of network interface card (Wireless LAN adapter) is 7C-67-A2-93-B6-1E

Step 2

Start Wireshark and begin capturing data on the interface.

Step 3

Questions and Answers:

i. IP address for www.yahoo.com:


 The IP address for www.yahoo.com is 74.6.143.25:
ii. MAC address for www.yahoo.com:
 The MAC address for www.yahoo.com is 18:45:93:23:4c:f0.

iii. IP address for www.google.com:


 The IP address for www.google.com is 142.250.71.14:
iv. MAC address for www.google.com:

 The MAC address for www.google.com is


18:45:93:23:4c:f0.
v. What is significant about this information?

The significant about this information is that the MAC addresses for all
remote hosts are same.

vi. Why does Wireshark show the actual MAC address of the local hosts, but not
the actual MAC address for the remote host?

The MAC address of the default-gateway is used for MAC addresses of
remote hosts because on the local network, remote hosts’ MAC addresses
Networking Group Assignment 6

are unknown. The Layer 2 information is removed from the packet and a
new Layer 2 header is assigned with the destination MAC address of the
next hop router after the packet reaches the default-gateway router.
