Question 3 – Network Tools (Windows)                                                                 (4 marks)
Often the best way to gain an initial familiarity with network tools is to simply use them, at a basic level in exploratory mode as suggested in some of the tutorial exercises.  Netstat and Tracert are included in Windows, while Wireshark is free to download and install.  Explore Wireshark, Netstat and Tracert, then complete this question.
A wireshark scan has produced a packet capture, saved to a file named pcapng and available on the Unit website. Download the file and open it in Wireshark, then answer these questions about the scan:
Very briefly summarise in your own words the content in each of the three horizontal display windows in Wireshark (.5 mark)
In Frame 3, what brand of computer launched this scan and what was its IP address? State where this information is found (.5 mark)
Briefly explain the exchange event captured in frames 4 – 6 (.5 mark)
Describe in your own words two specific network problems that a network administrator could use Wireshark for as a troubleshooting tool? (.5 mark)
A ‘NETSTAT –aon’ command has given the output below (excerpted). Briefly describe each column heading, and the states LISTENING, ESTABLISHED and CLOSE_WAIT.     (1 mark)

1.Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Replace hardcoded strings “Zero”, “One”, “Two”, “Three” in the ArrayList based on user typed input (use Scanner or JOptionPane classes). The user will be prompted for the String to be stored in the ArrayList and then hit enter. The user will be able to continue to add items to the ArrayList until they just hit enter without typing anything. Once the user does this (hits enter without typing anything), the program will display all of the elements of the ArrayList, both the index and String values, in a table. It will do this via a single loop making use of an iterator method. 2. Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Use a Try/Catch block so that the exception is caught and the program exits a bit more gracefully. Save this file as TryCatch.java.

Chapter 2 I Trait Approach 33 CASE 2.1 Choosing a New Director of Research Sandra Coke is vice president for research and development at Great Lakes Foods (GLF), a large snack food company that has approximately 1,000 employees. As a result of a recent reorganization, Sandra must choose the new director of research. The director will report directly to Sandra and will be responsible for developing and testing new products.
