Lab 9 – Ethernet

Part 1: ARP
- Examine the arp command: arp /?
- Display all entries in ARP cache: arp -a
- Delete 1 entry in ARP cache: arp -d [ip address]
For example: arp -d 172.16.213.34
- Display again all entries in ARP cache: arp -a
- Ping that host: ping 172.16.213.34
- Display again all entries in ARP cache: arp -a
Compare the results.
- Add static entry into ARP cache: arp -s [ip] [MAC]

Part 2: Use wireshark to examine ARP exchange

- Start capture on Wireshark.
- Ping to the gateway
- Ping to one host on the Internet
- Stop capture and evaluate ARP communication
