Chapter 7 TCP/IP Implementation Flashcards

Q

The DHCP Leases Process:

A
  • Discover- Once a node comes online and loads a simple version of TCP/IP and it’s ready to communicate with a DHCP server, it transmits a broadcast called a DHCP discover to the network’s broadcast address of 255.255.255.255 to see if any DHCP servers are online and then request an IP address.
  • Offer- DHCP servers that are online respond with a directed lease offer packet that contains an IP address that the node can lease.
  • Request- The node accepts the first offer it receives and returns a request to lease the IP address from the DHCP server.
  • Acknowledge- The DHCP server acknowledges the request from the node with a DHCP ACK, which has the IP address and settings required for the leasing time and starts the lease.

Q

are lease assignments in DHCP that enable you to configure a permanent IP address for a particular client on the subnet. Reserved IP addresses differ from statically configured IP addresses; when there are any changes in network parameters on the DHCP server, IP addresses receive the changes when they renew their leases.

a service that enables a DHCP client device to configure itself automatically with an IP address in the range of 169.254.0.1 to 169.254.255.254, in case no DHCP servers respond to the client’s DHCP discover broadcast. APIPA addresses are not routable, so devices with APIPA addresses cannot communicate outside of the local subnet.

Q

Ping command options:

A
  • Packet Size - by default, data packets are sent as re bytes. You can specify a larger size to response time. Example ping target [-1 size]
  • TTL- A value that determines how many hops an IP packet can traverse before being discarded. Example ping target [-i TTL]
  • Packet Count- Specifies the number of packets with which a remote host is pinged. Default is four packets. Example ping target [-n packet count]
  • Continuous ping- Pings the specified host until the command is interrupted by pressing Ctrl+C. Example ping target -t
  • IPv6- Ping using IPv6. Example ping target -6

Step 3- Root name Server
Step 4- Top-level domain server
Step 5- Other domain servers
Step 6- Host name resolution
Step 7- Host address
51
Q

is a plaintext file configured on a client device containing a list of IP addresses and their associated host names, separated by at least once space.

A

HOSTS file

52
Q

this command determines the route data takes to get to a particular destination. Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) “Time Exceeded” messages are then sent back from the routers to the node running the command. Each time a packet is sent, the TTL value is reduced before the packet is forwarded, thus allowing TTL to count how many hops it is away from the destination. Traceroute is the Linux equivalent of the tracert command.

A

Tracert

53
Q

Tracert command options:
if you are having trouble resolving host names when using tracert, use this option to prevent tracert from trying to resolve host names. It also speeds up response time because it is not spending time resolving host names.

A

-d

54
Q

Tracert command options:
The default number of hops tracert will attempt to reach is 30. Using this option, you can specify more or fewer hops for it to check.

A

-h max_hops

55
Q

Tracert command options:

You can use thisoption to force the outgoing datagram to pass through a specific router.

A

-j host-list

56
Q

Tracert command options:
If many of your responses on the tracert are timing out, by using this option, you can increase the number of milliseconds to wait before continuing. If, after increasing the value, destinations are then reachable, you probably have a bandwidth issue to resolve.

A

-w timeout

57
Q

this command provides information about latency and packet loss on a network. combines the functionality of the ping and tracert commands. It is similar to tracert as it identifies the routers that are on the path. In the output, it also displays the path to the remote host over a maximum of 30 hops.

A

pathping command

58
Q

pathping options:

A
  • h maximum hops
  • i specifiy a source address
  • n specify that host name resolution can be skipped

Internet Protocol Address Management (IPAM)

63
Q

a TCP/IP protocol that enables the transfer of files between a user’s workstation and a remote host. Characteristics include:
Works at the Application Layer (Layer7) of the OSI model and the Application Layer of the TCP/IP model.
TCP port 20 for data transfer
TCP port 21 for control commands

A

File Transfer Protocol (FTP)

64
Q

is a simple version of FTP that uses UDP as the transport protocol, and does not require logon to the remote host. It is commonly used for bootstrapping and loading applications and not for file transfer. FTP traffic is not encrypted and all transmissions are in clear text. User names, passwords, commands, and data can be read by anyone able to perform packet capture (sniffing) on the network.

A

Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)

A

Network Time Protocol (NTP)

66
Q

is an Internet protocol that enables administrators to monitor and manage network devices and traffic. Works at the Application Layer (Layer 7) of the OSI model. uses ports 161 and 162 to collect information from and send configuration commands to networking devices such as routers, switches, servers, workstations, printers, and any other SNMP-enables devices. generally runs over UDP.

A

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

67
Q

a communications protocol for formatting and sending email messages from a client to a server or between servers. Works at the Application Layer (Layer 7) of the OSI model. Uses port 25 or 587 for standard communications and port 465 for encrypted communications. Runs on TCP.

Works at the Application Layer (Layer 7) of the OSI model.
Uses TCP port 110 for regular transmissions and port 195 for encrypted transmissions.
Once the client retrieves and downloads the messages, the server deletes them unless the client configures options to leave the messages on the server.It is not the best email protocol to use when users need to access their email from multiple devices.

A

Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3)-

69
Q

is a protocol used for retrieving messages from a mail server. Works at the Application Layer (Layer 7) of the OSI model. Uses port 143 for regular transmissions and port 993 for encrypted transmissions.

Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)

71
Q

is a secure version of HTTP that provides a secure connection between a web browser and a server. Runs at the Application Layer (Layer 7) of the OSI model. Uses port 443 and runs on TCP. uses the Transport Layer Security (TLS) security protocol to encrypt data.

A

HTTP Secure (HTTPS)

72
Q

a terminal emulation protocol. It works at the Application Layer (Layer 7) of the OSI model. Uses TCP Port 23. It is NOT a secure protocol, since it transmits in cleartext.

A

Telnet

73
Q

is a program that enables a user or an application to log on to another device over a network, execute commands, and manage files. Characteristics include:
Operates at the Application Layer (Layer 7) of the OSI model.
It uses port 22 and runs on TCP
Offers strong authentication methods, and ensures that communications are secure over insecure channels.
All traffic (including passwords) is encrypted to eliminate connection hijacking, eavesdropping, and other network-level attacks, such as IP source routing, IP spoofing, and DNS spoofing.
SSH2 includes a secure replacement for FTP called Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP)

A

Secure Shell (SSH)

74
Q

is a protocol that helps share resources such as files, printers, and serial ports among devices. Works at the Application Layer (Layer 7) of the OSI model. Uses port 445 and runs on TCP.
