Introduction
The report is set up for the examination of the four sites utilizing the expository ability and
Wireshark. Parcels are caught from the three sites and the execution of the site are investigated for
the readiness of the report. The three sites are assessed as far as the execution and the
appropriation of the heap is investigated with the assistance of production of a throughput, time
grouping, stream and window scaling chart. The three sites are broke down utilizing the Wireshark
arrange investigation apparatus for the age of various diagrams utilized for the examination of the
system execution. The live information bundles are caught from the system that aides in
recognizable proof of the reaction time and produce the succession chart. Diverse show channels are
connected for narrowing the scan for the investigation of the site and produce the chart from the
system. Checking of the information activity is finished by investigating the information parcels
caught between the customer and the goal.
Task 1
The http and the tcp packets captured from the network for the analysis of the three
websites are analysed for identification of the throughput of the website, distribution of the load,
flow graph, windows scaling graph. The network statistics are created from the captured packets and
the graphs are attached in the report for the demonstration of the performance of each of the
websites.

NETWORKED APPLICATIONS
 Load Distribution
For analysing the network load, load balancing is used.
 Throughput Graph
From the above screen capture, we can see that the average throughput is 1000000.

NETWORKED APPLICATIONS
 Time Sequence Graph
From the above screen capture of we can see the TCP sequence graph.
 Flow Graph
The flow graph show the packet flow from client to server.
 Window Scaling Graph

 Load Distribution
The heap on the http://www.cbsinteractive.com.au/server is dissected from that point caught
bundle on the system. The level of the utilization of the distinctive servers can be investigated with
the points of interest of the burts rate and the burst begin time examination.
 Throughput Graph

NETWORKED APPLICATIONS
 Time Sequence Graph
 Flow Graph
The stream of the information activity and the data is investigated for the advancement of the
system examination report for the site http://www.cbsinteractive.com.au/.
 Window Scaling Graph

8
NETWORKED APPLICATIONS
The measure of the window outline is utilized for show of the window estimate and the time
allotment utilized for sending and getting the information parcel in the system.

 Throughput Graph
The through put diagram is made for the examination of the through put of the
http://www.newspapers.com.au/ server. The length of the portion ranges from 0 to 5000 and it is
utilized as the normal throughput.
 Time Sequence Graph

Conclusion
From the above report it can be reasoned that for the examination of the site wireshark is a
compelling instrument that can help in recognizing the stream of the information movement in the
system and break down the execution of the sites. The execution of the site are estimated as far as
the capacity of conveyance of the heaps, throughput, rime succession, stream chart and window
scaling diagram. The site is opened and the live parcels are caught utilizing the wireshark and it is
examined for the arrangement of the report. BY breaking down the execution of the four sites it has
been discovered that the locales are steady and have a decent execution for dealing with more
number of clients at any given moment. The investigation helps in finding the IP address of the
server facilitated by the site and distinctive data are assembled, for example, the window measure,
greatest size of the fragment, windows scaling choice and qualities. The reaction time of the
framework can be examined for the recognizable proof of the execution of the site.
