06 - TCP/IP Basics Flashcards
Protocols of IP
IPv4
IPv6
ICMP
TCP Three-way Handshake
SYN -
SYN-ACK -
ACK -
Parts of a TCP Header
Source Port
Desitnation Port
Sequence Number & ACK - keeps track of data flow
Flags - give both sides detailed info about connecttion
Checksum - checks header for errors
DNS & DHCP use what protocol?
UDP
How does a computer find a MAC address on the network?
Sends an ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) request to the broadcast address (FF-FF-FF-FF-FF-FF)
See ARP cache in Windows?
arp -a
Delete an address in ARP cache?
arp -d [address]
What three things must an IP numbering system do?
- create network IDs so each LAN has its own identification
- Interconnect LANs using routers,
- use subnet mask to determine if packet is for LAN or WAN
WAN
Wide Area Network
- group of 2 or more interconnected LANs
default gateway
- the router interface for a single LAN
- gives access beyond the router
How do routers determine where network traffic goes?
Network IDs
Routing Table
instructions that tell the router what to do with incoming packets
Subnet Mask
- series of ones followed by series of zeroes
- always totals 32 bits
- one’s are always the network ID, zeroes are the host ID
Whack
number of ones in an subnet mask
/24 = 24 ones
Who hands out IP addresses
IANA - Internet Assigned Numbers Authority
- oversee’s 5 Regional Internet Registries (RIR)
RIR for North America
ARIN - American Registry for Internet Numbers
Class A network block
1-126
1.0.0.0 - 126.255.255.255
16k hosts per network ID
