Wireshark HTTP Lab Analysis

The document discusses analyzing HTTP requests and responses using Wireshark, including basic GET and response interactions, encapsulation, conditional GET requests, retrieving long documents over multiple TCP segments, and HTML documents containing embedded objects. Students are asked questions about inspecting HTTP requests and responses to understand aspects like the HTTP version, IP addresses, status codes, file modification times, and response sizes.
