Solution
Figure 8.6 shows the ARP request and reply packets. Note that the
ARP data field in this case is 28 bytes, and that the individual
addresses do not fit in the 4-byte boundary. That is why we do not
show the regular 4-byte boundaries for these addresses. Also note
that the IP addresses are shown in hexadecimal.
