Summary of Step 1

Although it took about 10 pages of this chapter, the first step in this simple routing example boils down to a pretty basic process, as follows:

1.
Create the IP packet by encapsulating transport layer data after an IP header.

2.
Check the ARP cache to see if the MAC address of the default gateway is known. If it's not, use ARP to learn that MAC address.

3.
Encapsulate the packet inside an Ethernet frame.

4.
Send the Ethernet frame.

Although this short routing algorithm doesn't match every possibility, it certainly matches the logic Hannah uses to try to send a packet to the web server at 130.4.3.3. Toward the end of this chapter, you'll learn a few exceptions to how an IP host might behave, but for now, Hannah's part of this example is complete. The next section discusses what R1 does with the packet.
