In this lab, we follow some of the practical Wireshark labs specified in the Kurose and Ross book - Computer Networking: A Top-Down Approach, 7th ed. 
The attached zip files contain all the labs specifications together with some traces files and some pcap files. Pcap files can be opened by double click while the trace files (which have no extension) must be loaded using the File->Open menu in Wireshark.
The individual labs and the traces file(s) are attached, as well.
Details about the wireshark installation (within the scope of this lab) can be found in the wiresharkInstallation.rtf file.
WIRESHARK MUST BE RUN AS ADMINSTRATOR, if you want to do somethhing useful.
We will cover (time permitting)
1. Wireshark_Intro_v7.0.pdf
2. Wireshark_TCP_v7.0.df
3. Wireshark_UDP_v7.0.pdf
4. Wireshark_DHCP_v7.0
5. Wireshark_ICMP_v7.0
For the grading part, do (at home) one of the two labs:
6. Wireshark_Ethernet_ARP_v7.0.pdf
	OR
7. Wireshark_HTTP_v7.0.pdf
You will submit (by email or during the last week lab) a .pdf or a .txt or a .rtf file which contains the answers to the 15 + EX-1 + EX-2 questions in the Ethernet_ARP lab OR the answers to the 19 questions in the HTTP file.
To get a pdf file, start and do the work with a Libre Office Writer document (or MS Word document), and convert it to pdf format.
If parts of these labs do not work as advertised, specify the error you get for that particular question.
