Notes and Observations
In this lab, we discussed the various network layers and their operation of each one along with examples of what they look like in their respective physical and digital states. By typing in cmd in the run screen, along with ipconfig/all, we were able to pull up the IP address and look up the MAC address and where it was assigned. After finding this, used the ping command to receive a reply from Singapore. After receiving a response from Singapore, tried several other countries but with no luck. After running this, ran a tracert on the main campus webserver with responded in 30 hops.

Conclusions
In this lab I accomplished finding the IP address and MAC address on MAC or Windows based systems. Also leaned Please Do Not Throw Away Sausage Pizza to remember the order of the OSI model and their functions along with what they look like.
