Networking Lab - AlanK23/cybersecisfun GitHub Wiki

During this lab I learned about networks and how they work. Each system has an internet IP address and a private one for the local network. The local network IP’s do not need to be unique to the system on the internet because they are not being used to communicate information with the rest of the internet, only on the local network. I also learned how to use nslookup, a useful tool which shows information about a domain, such as IP address and owner. I learned how to trace routes which shows the amount of hops it takes to reach a specific domain. Hostname shows the name of the hose running the machine. For protocol specific information, netstat is a tool to look at that information. Ipconfig will show detailed information of your IP address.
