Reordering the segments exchanged on a connection

A TCP connection, as explained in the TCP chapter of Computer Networking: Principles, Protocols and Practice starts with a three-way-handshake and ends with the exchange of segments with the FIN flag set.

Paste this command into your terminal:

The password to connect is

Reorder the entire connection

During this connection, the client opens a connection to the server that listens on port 1234. It then sends a single byte of data that was acknowledged by the server and then decided to terminate the connection. Can you reorder all the segments exchanged on this connection ?
