Basic Networking Commands

Today, i am going to teach you about the commands which are used daily in networking.These commands are also used in hacking for information gathering purposes about the target.Learn and practice the commands given below -:

1.Ping                                                                                                                                                                                                 Ping is a important tool used very commonly to check, the host is online or not means, its is connected to network or not. It also mean, the host we are trying to ping  is accessible from your computer or not. I am showing you the example in the picture shown below-

2.Tracert                                                                                                                                                                                          Tracert is a command tool used to trace the route from your computer to Host computer . It uses ICMP (internet control messaging protocol) to trace the route. It just lists the  hops or routers comes in between while reaching the host computer  from your own computer.

3.Nslookup                                                                                                                                                                                      Nslookup is a command line tool which acts like a reverse-dns of any Ip address. This resolves the Ip address to Domain name.Just see below to know more

4.Netstat                                                                                                                                                                                            Netstat is a tool to list the connections to foreign addresses with their port numbers . This is very useful tool. It lists all the TCP and UDP connections . Command is “netstat -an”

NSG 2.1 Tcl/OTcl Script Generator

Are you a beginner for ns2 network simulator? Are you afraid of Tcl/oTcl script generation? Then there is a tcl script generator, named NSG 2.1 NSG - Network Simulation Generator NSG 2.1 is a java .jar file.  So, this application can run on all platforms (windows/linux/mac os). It deserves the java installed in you pc, prior to working with NSG 2.1. Java must be installed to run NSG2.1. So, initially, java must be installed. How to install java in Windows/ubuntu/mint/debian linux/ OS X ? Step 1 : Go to Terminal and run  java -version   to check the java version installed in your machine. Step 2 :  For Windows, click here  to download the java installer. Then, it is a typical next-next windows executable installation. For ubuntu/mint/debian linux operating systems, run the following commands in that terminal: sudo apt-get install default-jre sudo apt-get install default-jdk sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre sudo apt-get install openjdk-7- jdk How to

SUMO installation in linux (Debian/Ubuntu/Mint)

SUMO - S imulation of U rban Mo bility SUMO an open source, portal, microscopic, multi-modal road traffic simulation. It allows for intermodal simulation including pedestrians and comes with a large set of tools for scenario creation.  It allows to simulate as to how a given traffic demand which consists of single vehicles moves through a given road network. The simulator allows to address a large set of traffic management topics. It is purely microscopic: each vehicle is modeled explicitly, has an own route, and moves individually through the network. SUMO Installation Procedure: Installation in Linux and mac OS Step I: Install two pre-requisite packages to build SUMO with GUI. Go to terminal and run: $ sudo apt-get install libgdal1-dev proj libxerces-c2-dev $ sudo apt-get install libfox-1.6-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev Step II: If you are using Unbuntu 12.04 or older versions, as it doesn't ship with libgdal package, create a symbolic link: $ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/li

getattrib, Setattrib, hasattrib and delattrib in python

# `getattr(object, name[, default])` Function in Python The `getattr(object, name[, default])` function returns the value of a named attribute of an object, where `name` must be a string. If the object has an attribute with the specified `name`, then the value of that attribute is returned. On the other hand, if the object does not have an attribute with `name`, then the value of `default` is returned, or `AttributeError` is raised if `default` is not provided. ```python >>> t = ('This', 'is', 'a', 'tuple') >>> t.index('is') 1 >>> getattr(t, 'index') <built-in method index of tuple object at 0x10c15e680> >>> getattr(t, 'index')('is') 1 ``` when the attribute is not defined, ```python >>> getattr(t, 'len') Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'len
