3.3 Analyses
1. How many HTTP GET request messages were sent by your browser (excluding the
object favicon.ico)? To which Internet addresses were these GET requests sent?
Ans 3 get messages
Sent to 128.119.245.12 and
178.79.137.164

2. Fill the following table:

Object source dst IP Destination Source Transport
IP Address address Port No Port No Layer

3. How many hosts were responding to your browser? What are the host names?
2 hosts
192.168.0.101
178.79.137.164
4. Can you tell whether your browser downloaded the two images serially, or whether
they were downloaded from the two web sites in parallel? Explain.

Ans Downloaded serially, as if they were downloaded parallelly, the time would have been
same to download both
5. What is the total delay incurred in downloading the webpage along with the
embedded objects? Provide a snapshot of the packet listing window with only http
packets.
Total delay= 5.107472-3.751826

6. What type of TCP connection is used by HTTP for each object? How can you tell?
A keep alive tcp connection is used for each object, ie persistent

7. What was the throughput across the HTTP sessions?

Total time =5.107472 – 3.751826= 1.355646

Total data received = 1355 + 761 + 225=2341

Throughput = total data/ total time=1726.9
