Deep space communications utilize TCP/IP protocols with some added assistance from a TCP Convergence Layer and the Bundle Protocol. In this workshop, participants will examine the store-and-forward techniques used to transmit "bundles" of information from one host to another via a relay system. Using the latest version of Wireshark, participants will examine the TCP Convergence Header and locate the first packet of a bundle and the first and second legs of the relay process, as reassembled by Wireshark. After identifying the content contained within the bundle, participants will create a filter to locate the last packet of a bundle and examine key fields of the Bundle Protocol, including fields that define priority, destination type, endpoint IDs, and reporting of bundle delivery.
