Lab 10a - samuelGreitzer/SYS-140-Tech-Journal GitHub Wiki

In this lab we used commands in command line to locate a webserver

  • ping: This command will verify that your computer can communicate with another computer. The command will return whether or not the pings succeeded
  • nslookup: This command will find the DNS server that your computer is connected to. It will return the name of the server and its IP address
  • tracert: This command will determine the path that data takes from your computer to another computer. It will return the name and IP of all the stops the packet makes along its journey
