Wireshark Lab -

A text conversation materialized in the "Follow UDP Stream" window. It wasn't machine code. It was English. > Is anyone there? > I can see you. He minimized the window. This was a closed lab. No internet access. No Wi-Fi. Just three VMs on a hypervisor. He checked the source IP again: 10.0.0.25. Client-3. The dummy machine. He would smile and say it was easy
