This assignment focuses on network performance analysis using Wireshark, a popular network analyzer tool. The student analyzes network traffic by capturing and decoding packets, examining protocols like HTTP, TCP, and IP. The assignment includes the analysis of website performance, including metrics like load distribution, throughput, and window scaling. The student uses Wireshark to capture network activity and generate graphs to visualize network behavior, such as flow graphs and time sequence graphs. The analysis covers the identification of packet arrival times, time differences, and the impact of factors like window scaling on network performance. The assignment also explores the initiation of client-server connections and the detection of packet retransmissions. The student analyzes several websites, including sbs.com.au, amazon.com.au, and others, to assess their network performance characteristics. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of Wireshark in network monitoring and troubleshooting, highlighting its role in capturing and analyzing network traffic to identify and resolve performance issues.
