W3_UDP_form

The document outlines a series of tasks related to analyzing UDP packets using Wireshark. It includes identifying fields in the UDP header, determining the length of these fields, and answering questions about UDP payload capacity and protocol numbers. The document also requires examining a pair of UDP packets to identify sender and receiver port numbers.

Name: Group:

W3 - UDP
Capture filename:
1. Select one UDP packet from your trace. From this packet, determine how many fields there are in
the UDP header. Name these fields.
Pckg. nr.: Number of fields:
Field names (e.g.: port, ip, ...):
2. By consulting the displayed information in Wireshark’s packet content field for this packet, deter-
mine the length (in bytes) of each of the UDP header fields.

Pckg. nr.: Length of one field: bytes


3. -
4. What is the maximum number of bytes that can be included in a UDP payload? (Hint: the answer
to this question can be determined by your answer to 2. above)

Maximum number of bytes (in payload): bytes


5. What is the largest possible source port number? (Hint: see the hint in 4.)

Largest possible source port number:


6. What is the protocol number for UDP? Give your answer in both hexadecimal and decimal notation.
To answer this question, you’ll need to look into the Protocol field of the IP datagram containing
this UDP segment (see Figure 4.13 in the text, and the discussion of IP header fields).

Pckg. nr.:
Protocol number - Decimal:
Protocol number - Hexadecimal (e.g 0x2A):
7. Examine a pair of UDP packets in which your host sends the first UDP packet and the second UDP
packet is a reply to this first UDP packet. (Hint: for a second packet to be sent in response to a
first packet, the sender of the first packet should be the destination of the second packet). What is
the port number of the sender? What is the port number of the receiver?

Sent Pckg. nr.:


Sender port number:
Receiver port number:

Received Pckg. nr.:


Sender port number:
Receiver port number:
