In this example, this PC host IP address is 192.168.1.147 and the default gateway has an IP address of 192.168.1.1. Type Data FCS 8 Bytes 6 Bytes 6 Bytes 2 Bytes 46 – 1500 Bytes 4 Bytes Step 2: Examine the network configuration of the PC. Step 1: Review the Ethernet II header field descriptions and lengths. A Wireshark capture will be used to examine the contents in those fields. In Part 1, you will examine the header fields and content in an Ethernet II frame. 1 PC (Windows with internet access and with Wireshark installed) Instructions Part 1: Examine the Header Fields in an Ethernet II Frame.The screenshots in this lab were taken from Wireshark v2.4.3 for Windows 10 (64bit). It also assumes that Wireshark has been pre-installed on the PC. Instructor Note: This lab assumes that the student is using a PC with internet access. In Part 2, you will use Wireshark to capture and analyze Ethernet II frame header fields for local and remote traffic. In the first part of this lab, you will review the fields contained in an Ethernet II frame. When learning about Layer 2 concepts, it is helpful to analyze frame header information. For example, if the upper layer protocols are TCP and IP and the media access is Ethernet, then the Layer 2 frame encapsulation will be Ethernet II. The frame composition is dependent on the media access type. When upper layer protocols communicate with each other, data flows down the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) layers and is encapsulated into a Layer 2 frame. Part 2: Use Wireshark to Capture and Analyze Ethernet Frames Background / Scenario.
