Consider the following topology. iMac2 wants to send a file to iMac3. iMac2 knows the destination IP of iMac3. Assuming that the fully configured network has just been switched on, explain the exact process that occurs to send the file from source to destination (only one way). Since many things happen along the way, you only need to address the following in your answer: 1. The appropriate names of the PDU during different stages 2. The ARP table population 3. The MAC table population 4. The usage and role of the IP Routing table (assume that the router already knows all routes to different networks) Hint: This question does not require explanation of the OSI Reference Model or TCP/IP stack. Your answer should be strictly structured in a step-by-step number-point format.
