Intro to IP and Ports Flashcards

1
Q

IP is like a series of moving vans

A
  • Network topology is the road (ethernet, DSL, cabling)
  • the trucks are IP (roads designed for this truck)
  • the boxes inside hold your data (TCP/UDP)
  • inside the boxes are also application info

UDP is connectionless, meaning…?

Q

DHCP

A

udp/67 and udp/68
dynamic host configuration protocol, automatically configures IP address, subnet mask, etc. requires DHCP server.

20
Q

What are pooled addresses on DHCP?

A

Anyone who connects to a network will be given an IP from the pool of available addresses. Each system is given a lease that lasts a set amount of time.

21
Q

What is a DHCP reservation?

A

reserving a particular IP address for a particular device on a network. This is done by associating an IP address with the devices MAC address.

22
Q

TFTP

A

udp/69
Trivial File Transfer Protocol
For sending a small bit of information quickly to another device.

23
Q

HTTP and HTTPS

A

tcp/80 (in the clear)
tcp/443 (encrypted)
If encrypted, using SSL or TLS

24
Q

NTP

A

udp/123
Network Time Protocol
every device on the network has it’s own clock and uses NTP to stay synchronized. Critical for logging files, authentication or outage details

25
Q

SNMP

A

udp/161
Simple Network Management Protocol
query devices about how that device may be performing
v3 has encryption, unlike v1 and v2

26
Q

What are SNMP Traps?

A

When SNMP queries a device about how it’s performing, traps allow alerts from the network devices to be sent from the devices using udp/162

27
Q

LDAP/LDAPS

A

tcp/389
lightweight directory access protocol
store and retrieve information in a network directory.

28
Q

LDAP Secure

A

tcp/636 LDAP over SSL

29
Q

SMB

A

tcp/445
server message block
allows for file sharing, locking, sometimes calles CIFS
integrated into windows OS

30
Q

Syslog

A

udp/514
standard for message logging
often used in conjunction with a SIEM

31
Q

How should you log messages on a network?

A

using a log collector like syslog, used on a SIEM (Security Information and Event Manager)

32
Q

What is SQL

A

a standard language across database servers

33
Q

what port is Microsoft SQL server on?

A

tcp/1433

34
Q

RDP

A

tcp/3389
allows helpdesk to connect to a desktop or just an application

35
Q

SIP

A

tcp/5060 and tcp/5061
Session Initiation Protocol
control protocol for VoIP

36
Q

ICMP

A

it’s own protocol, doesn’t use TCP or IP.
internet control message protocol, like text messaging with a device

37
Q

GRE

A

generic routing ecapsulation
tunnelling between endpoints, like a VPN
No built in encryption but can be added

38
Q

What is a VPN Concentrator

A

purpose built device to encrypt/decrypt data at a central point in VPN tunnel
Commonly found on firewalls

39
Q

IPSec

A

internet protocol security
Security for OSI layer 3
Very standardized
anti-replay
TWO common protocols
AH authentication header
ESP encapsulation security payload

40
Q

IKE

A

Internet Key Exchange
agree on encryption/decryption keys without sending keys across the network, builds a security association (SA)

41
Q

IKE Phase 1

A

Uses diffie-hellman to create a shared secret key using udp/500

42
Q

IKE Phase 2

A

Coordinate ciphers and key sizes, negotiate inbound and outbound SA for IPsec

43
Q

What is the purpose of an AH

A

Authentication Header is to validate the information you’re receiving over an IPSec tunnel. If using AH mode, you’re sending info in the clear, but the AH mode includes hashing.

44
Q

What is the purpose of ESP

A

Encapsulation Security Payload (ESP) encrypts the packet. Adds a header, trailer, and integrity check value

A
