ICMP Traffic Analysis Lab Report

The document outlines a lab exercise analyzing ICMP traffic using Wireshark, where a ping command to 8.8.8.8 yielded 8 messages. It details the type field values, TTL values, and lengths of ICMP packet headers and payloads for both ping and tracert commands. The lab concludes with instructions to save and upload the capture file.

Week 3 Lab: Analysis of ICMP Traffic.

1. Start Wireshark and apply a capture filter for ICMP traffic.


2. From a command prompt run the ping command with a target IP address of [Link] and
determine how many messages related to the ping command are in the packet capture.

1. There are 8 messages total that are related to the ping command.

3. What is the value of the type field contained within the ICMP header for each message
type?
1. The requests were valued at 8 and the replies were valued at 0.
4. What is the time to live value contained within the IPv4 header for each message type?
1. The requests have a TTL of 128 and the replies have a TTL of 117.
5. What is the length of the ICMP packet header for each message type?
1. The length of the ICMP packet header is 8 bytes for each message type.
6. What is the length of the ICMP packet payload for each message type?
1. The length of the packet payload is 24 bytes for each message type.
7. What is the total length of the ICMP packet header + the ICMP packet payload for each
message type?
1. The total length of the ICMP packet header and payload is 32 bytes for each
message type.
8. From a command prompt run the tracert command with a target IP address of [Link] and
determine how many messages related to the tracert command are in the packet capture.
1. I believe there are 6 messages related to the tracert in the packet capture.
9. What is the value of the type field contained within the ICMP header for each message
type related to the tracert command?
1. The type field in the ICMP header is 8 for requests and 0 for replies.
10. What is the total length of the ICMP packet header + the ICMP packet payload for each
message type?
1. The total length is 64 bytes for both requests and replies.
11. Save the capture file as YourLastName_HOL3.pcapng and upload it with this completed
worksheet.
