Lab 1: Trace the Request

What I practiced

In this lab, I worked with a simple virtual Linux network and used networking tools to examine:

• name resolution,
• route selection,
• next-hop addressing,
• outgoing interface and source addressing,
• and neighbor information.

Request trace

In one or two sentences, explain how the client moves from web.minicorp.test to its next-hop device.

Replace this line with your explanation.

Key takeaway

Explain why the client needs both an IP address and a link-layer address when sending traffic to the next hop.

Replace this line with your explanation.
