Messer Notes Flashcards
Non-ephemeral ports
Ports 0 through 1023
server or service
Ephemeral ports
Temporary ports - Determine in real time by client
1024 through 65535
ICMP
Internet Control Message Protocol/PING
not used for data transfer. administrative tool
What are the OSI model layers?
Layer 7 - application Layer 6 - presentation Layer 5 - Session Layer 4 - Transport Layer 3 - Network Layer 2 - Data Link Layer 1 - Physical
Layer 2
Data link Frame
MAC address
Switching Layer
Layer 3
Network layer
routing layer
fragments frames
Layer 4
TCP/UDP
Layer 5
Communication management
Control protocols start, stop, restart
tunneling protocols
Layer 6
Character encoding
application encryption SSL/TLS
often combined with application
Layer 7
Application
the layer we see
HTTP, FTP
SYN
TCP Control Flag
Synchronize sequence numbers
PSH
TCP control flag
Push the data to the application without buffering
RST
TCP control flag
Reset the connection
FIN
TCP control flag
Last packet from the sender
IP fragmentation
splitting a frame in order for it to transmit according to the MTU
Star Topology
Hub and spoke
All devices connect to central device
Switched Ethernet Network
Ring Topology
Token ring
MAN
WAN
Built in fault tolerance
Bus topology
Coaxial cable was the bus
single cable connecting all devices
one break link disables entire network
Mesh typology
Fully connected/partial connected
redundancy, fault tolerance, load balancing
WAN
Hybrid Topology
Most networks are hybrids
Wireless Topology
Ad Hoc- one device to another
Mesh Internet wireless
Peer to Peer Network
all devices are both clients and servers
low cost
easy to deploy
Client server network
All client talks to server, no client to client
LAN
local area network
building or group building
Ethernet and 802.11
any slower and it isn’t local
PAN
Personal area network
bluetooth
work telemetry
CAN
Campus Area network
NAS
Network attached Storage
Connect to a shared storage device across the network
File-level access- must change entire gb file if edits are made
SAN
Looks and feels like local storage
block-level access- very efficient reading and writing
MPLS
Multiprotocol label switching
pushing and popping off label of data
mGRE
Multipoint Generic router encapsulation
dynamic mesh VPN builds itself
tunnels are build dynamically on-demand
send data directly instead of hub
