Ports 101: Practical.

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) 21 This protocol is used by a file-sharing application built on a client-server model, meaning you can download files from a central location.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Secure Shell (SSH) 22 This protocol is used to securely login to systems via a text-based interface for management.   

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) 80 This protocol powers the World Wide Web (WWW)! Your browser uses this to download text, images and videos of web pages.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) 443 This protocol does the exact same as above; however, securely using encryption.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Server Message Block (SMB) 445 This protocol is similar to the File Transfer Protocol (FTP); however, as well as files, SMB allows you to share devices like printers.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) 3389 This protocol is a secure means of logging in to a system using a visual desktop interface (as opposed to the text-based limitations of the SSH protocol).

Common Network Commands: Ping

-
Ping Command Overview The `ping` command is a fundamental utility used in network diagnostics. It checks the reachability of a host on an Internet Protocol (IP) network and measures the round-trip time for messages sent from the originating host to a destination computer. The command uses the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) to send echo request packets and listens for echo replies. Origin and Development The `ping` command was developed in 1983 by Mike Muuss as a diagnostic tool for the ARPANET. Since then, it has become a standard utility available on most operating systems, including Linux, Windows, and macOS, making it an essential tool for network administrators and users. Basic Functionality The `ping` command serves several functions: - Tests connectivity to a specified host. - Measures the time taken for packets to travel to the destination and back. - Provides statistics about packet loss and round-trip time. Key Command Syntax 1. Basic Syntax:    ```   ...

Common Network Commands: Route

-
Route Command Overview The route command is a part of the older net-tools package used in Linux systems for viewing and manipulating the IP routing table. It provides information about how packets are routed through the network and allows for the addition, deletion, and modification of routes. Origin and Development Historically, the route command has been a primary tool for managing network routing in Linux. However, it has largely been replaced by the ip command from the iproute2 package, which offers more advanced features and capabilities. Despite this, route is still commonly used in many Linux distributions for its simplicity and familiarity. Basic Functionality The route command serves several functions: - Displays the current routing table entries. - Shows destination networks, gateways, and associated interfaces. - Allows for the addition, deletion, and modification of routes. Key Command Syntax 1. Display Routing Table:    ```    route -n    ``` ...

Common Network Commands: IP R

-
IP R Command Overview The `ip r` command is part of the `iproute2` package in Linux systems. It is used for displaying and manipulating the routing table, which determines how network packets are directed to their destinations. This command is vital for network configuration, management, and troubleshooting. Origin and Development The `iproute2` package was created to replace the older `net-tools` package, which included commands like `ifconfig` and `route`. The `ip` command provides a more unified interface for network management, supporting advanced features and modern networking protocols. It offers better capabilities for managing complex networking scenarios, making it a crucial tool for system and network administrators. Basic Functionality The `ip r` command serves several functions: - Displays current routing table entries. - Shows destination networks, gateways, and associated interfaces. - Allows for the addition, deletion, and modification of routes. Key Command Syntax 1. Di...
