NETWORKED APPLICATION MANAGEMENT
Introduction
For the development of the report an analysis is made on two different websites i.e.
“https://www.abc.net.au/news/”, ”https://iview.abc.net.au/” using Wireshark. Live data packets are
captured from three different networks for the evaluation of performance, quality of service and
service management. The packet loss and retransmission of the data packet of the network is
evaluated for finding the throughput of the network. The issues in the network are identified for the
management of the network and comparing the statistics of the different applications in the
different network. The details of each of the packet captured from the network is given in the report
and the GUI feature of the tool is compared with other tools and given in the report.
Part 1:
Network 1:
1. Start time of capture
The time of capture and details are analysed from the summary of packet capture and the details are
given below:
First packet:
2019-01-28 17:35:16
Last packet:
2019-01-28 17:35:45

2. Total number of capture packet for each protocol
Th total packet captured from the network while reaching the two websites is 2803 and it is
visulaized from the packet summary.
3. Total Number of lost packets
The number of lost packet are unknown from the summary and 0 number of packets are lost in the
network, it can be found with implementing the filter in Wireshark “tcp.analysis.lost_segment”.
4. IP addresses of the client and server

The Ip address of client and server is given below:
Internet Protocol Version 6,
Src: 2409:4060:209f:f0da:612e:9374:34a9:4d36,
Dst: 2404:6800:4002:80a::2004
Network 2:
1. Start time of capture
The following is the details of packet capture from the network and the details can be found
from the summary section of the packet captured.
First packet:
2019-01-28 16:29:31
Last packet:

2. Total number of capture packet for each protocol
For each of the protocol 3707 number of packets are captured from the network using the
Wireshark Packet capture.
3. Total Number of lost packets
The total number of data packet that is lost in the network is unknown from the summary of the
packet captured and it can be found with the application of filter and it is found that 0 packet is lost.
4. IP addresses of the client and server
The IP address of client and server are given below:
Internet Protocol Version 4, Src: 10.10.30.79, Dst: 8.8.8.8
