1. 1 UNIX Networking

2. 2 Section Overview TCP/IP Basics TCP/IP Configuration TCP/IP Network Testing Dynamic Host Config Protocol (DHCP) Wireless Networking

3. 3 TCP/IP Protocol Stack Physical Layer (media) Link Layer (Device Drivers) Network Layer (IP) Transport Layer (TCP,UDP) Application (FTP, HTTP, DNS)

4. 4 EIPT/U TCP/IP Packet Encapsulation UTP/PSTN Ethernet/PPP IP TCP/UDP Service Data Data T/UData IPT/UData E

5. 5 Connecting to a Network Hostname and IP Address assignment Configuration of hardware Default route (gateway) assignment Name Service Configuration Testing and troubleshooting

6. 6 Hostnames Uniquely identifies each system Fully Qualified Domain Name hostname.site.domain[.country] Country: 2 letter identifier for country Domain: Type of site (edu, com, org) Site: Unique name of organization Hostname: Unique name of system hostname : Display or set system name

7. 7 IP Addresses Unique for each connection (interface) Consists of 4 octets (#.#.#.#) Network portion Host portion Special Addresses Network Address Broadcast Address

8. 8 IP Address Classes Class 1 st Byte Format Total Hosts A 0 – 126N.H.H.H16 Million B128 – 191N.N.H.H64 Thousand C192 – 239N.N.N.H254 D224 – 239-(Multicast) E240 – 254-(Experimental)

9. 9 Subnet Masks Splits networks into subnetworks Separates address into 2 parts 1’s – Network Portion 0’s – Host Portion Example: Class C Network Address: N.N.N.H Mask: 255.255.255.0 (255 = 11111111) CIDR Notation: N.N.N.H/24

10. 10 Interface Configuration Hardware to connect to network Common interfaces Ethernet Modem Loopback ( lo ) Interface ifconfig – View/Configure interface

11. 11 Ethernet Addressing Assigned by manufacturer (hardware) Must be absolutely unique Address format 6 octets in hex (#:#:#:#:#:#) First 3 octets: Manufacturer Identifier Last 3 octets: Card serial number Used for local network communication

12. 12 Translates IP addresses to Ethernet (MAC) addresses Address Resolution Protocol Who is 10.0.0.3? 10.0.0.110.0.0.210.0.0.310.0.0.4 I am (1:2:3:7:8:9) arp –a : View the cache

13. 13 Connects Networks together If destination not on local network, packets sent through gateway Default Gateways route : Display/configure routing

14. 14 RedHat Network Files /etc/sysconfig/network HOSTNAME /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ ifcfg-[interface] BOOTPROTOONBOOT IPADDRGATEWAY USERCTLNETMASK NETWORKBROADCAST ifup/ifdown [interface]

15. 15 Name Services /etc/hosts Local configuration Localhost – 127.0.0.1 /etc/resolv.conf Domain Name Service (DNS) lookup search : domains to search if not FQDN nameserver (3): Nameservers to consult /etc/nsswitch.conf

16. 16 DNS Name Resolution 1 2 3 45 678 host.domain.comdns.domain.comdns.iupui.edudns.cs.iupui.edu Root Server Non-Recursive Recursive

17. 17 Network Testing Localhost reachability Hostname reachability Local network reachability Internet network reachability DNS resolution

18. 18 Network tools ping – Reachability test traceroute – Routing performance netstat – Network performance stats tcpdump – Packet sniffing nslookup/dig – DNS Queries Configuration tools (already discussed)

19. 19 Dynamic Host Config Protocol Client broadcasts a request for an IP address and network information Server leases address to client Lease must be renewed periodically Easy to make global network changes Linux: BOOTPROTO=dhcp

20. 20 Wireless Networks Extend the network Included in many devices now Laptops PDAs DSL/Cable Modems Bandwidth (YMMV!) 802.11b – 11 Mbps 802.11g – 54 Mbps Set Service Identifier (SSID) Shared “key” between clients and Access Point (AP) Automatically detected vs. assigned

21. 21 Wireless Security Issues Sniffing / War Driving Bandwidth stealing Access to private resources Security Measures Non-broadcasting SSIDs MAC Access Control Lists (ACLs) WEP?

22. 22 RedHat ifcfg- Additions TYPE=Wireless ESSID=[ssid name] CHANNEL=[1-11] MODE=[Auto|Managed|Ad-hoc] Can set manually with /sbin/iwconfig
