Question

Assume you have a PC attached to an Ethernet, and the PC has been turned off for days. Then, you turn the PC on, and after it boots, you try to fetch the web page www.cs.utdallas.edu. List all the packets that the PC will transmit over the Ethernet before the first message from the PC reaches www.cs.utdallas.edu.

Answer 1

Even though you pc is connected to Ethernet and switch off. I don’t see possible way to list down the web pages during off mode of desktop or laptop or workstation. We end user try to ping end user use to get designation tcpip address host not found or some negative reply.

So as result switch off computer or desktop which is connected to Ethernet there is not any possible to get the list of web pages access during that time. Packets are transmitted based on mac address.
