1. What is the MAC address of your wired LAN card of your machine?
00-A1-B0-60-1D-4F
Finding own MAC address in Windows XP is easy with the command prompt. The basic steps
for finding the MAC address are as follow:
Click Start->Run
Type cmd and press enter.
In the prompt, type ipconfig /all.
Physical address entry is the MAC Address.
2. What is the EUI-64 bit Interface Identifier of your machine?
48 bits MAC Address of my machine is 00-A1-B0-60-1D-4F
Steps to generate interface identifier in EUI-64 format
MAC Address: 00-A1-B0-60-1D-4F
Insert HEX value FFFE between third & fourth byte of MAC Address then 00-A1-B0-FF-FE-
60-1D-4F
Perform 2’s complement of LSB of first byte i.e. 0 Hence, 02-A1-B0-FF-FE-60-1D-4F
Converting to colon hexadecimal notation to get 64-bits Interface-ID called EUI-64.
o 0::2A1:B0FF:FE60:1D4F
Hence, EUI-64 of my machine is 0::2A1:B0FF:FE60:1D4F

3. What is the Link Local IPv6 unicast address of your machine?
Link Local IPv6 unicast address FE80::2A1:B0FF:FE60:1D4F

4. Prepared By: KISHOJ BAJRACHARYA (062-BCT-515)
Link-Local addresses are automatically assigned by the end user equipment and require no
external configuration. Format defined by RFC 4291 Section 2.5.6. The address format uses a unique
binary prefix (FE8::/10) and the remaining bits (118) are built from the local interface identifier. In the
case of ethernet (RFC 2464) the MAC (48 bits) is used to create the EUI-64 value as shown below. Each
physical layer supported has a separate RFC for example, FDDI, IEEE 802.15.4 etc. defining, among
other things, how the link-local address is created. If an interface identifier has more than 118 bits the
link-local address cannot be generated and the unit must be manually configured. Link-local addresses
are not routable globally (outside the local LAN/network – however that is defined). The 128 bits of a
link-local address for an ethernet interface breakdown as follows:
4. Print the IPv6 routing table using “route” command.
To print the IPv6 routing table we use “route print” which is used to display the routes in the IP
routing table which is shown in the snapshot which was performed on the desktop PC.

5. Analyze the output of ping/ping6 to Link Local Unicast IPv6 address of your machine.
Command: ping –t FE80::2A1:B0FF:FE60:1D4F
6. What does the command pathping do? Explain with practical snapshots.

6. Prepared By: KISHOJ BAJRACHARYA (062-BCT-515)
Pathping does the following works:
It traces route and provide network latency and packet loss for each router and link in the
path.
It combines the functionality of PING and TRACERT.
It is invaluable for determining which routers or subnets may be having network problems - it
displays the degree of packet loss at any given router or link.
It sends multiple Echo Request messages to each router between a source and destination
over a period of time and computes aggregate results based on the packets returned from
each router.
It performs the equivalent of the tracert command by identifying which routers are on the
path.
Firewalls
Like tracert PathPing uses Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) over TCP/IP. Many
firewalls will block ICMP traffic by default. If an attacker is able to forge ICMP redirect packets,
he or she can alter the routing tables on the host and possibly subvert the security of the host
by causing traffic to flow via a path you didn't intend.
Equivalent bash command (Linux): trace - Find the IP address of a remote host
Practical Snapshots:
Pathping to test within a production LAN out to the Internet to a Web server

Using pathping command from the source to the destination and let pathping do its computation.
7. Show the IPv6 and ICMPv6 status using the command “netstat -s”.
The netstat command is used to display the TCP/IP network protocol statistics and information. The
netstat command is used to show network status.
Traditionally, it is used more for problem determination than for performance measurement.
However, the netstat command can be used to determine the amount of traffic on the network to
ascertain whether performance problems are due to network congestion.
The netstat command displays information regarding traffic on the configured network interfaces,
such as the following:
• The address of any protocol control blocks associated with the sockets and the state of all
sockets
• The number of packets received, transmitted, and dropped in the communications subsystem
• Cumulative statistics per interface
• Routes and their status
