The goal of this assignment is to explore the network packets associated with several typical online activities. You will have the chance to analyze bit-by-bit the flows associated with these services and evaluate different application and protocol parameters across the entire TCP/IP stack including Data Link Layer/Medium Access Control (L2), Network Layer (a.k.a. IP or L3), Transport Layer and Application Layer. To carry out this analysis, you will use Wireshark.

While Wireshark allows you to capture packets on a network interface it can also be used to read previously collected packet traces. Make sure to show the full steps and screenshots of capturing network packets on Wireshark.
