Looks like this question has been asked in other threads, in the future, just one thread per topic will do.

http://tcpipguide.com/ will have lots of good stuff in it.

For security, it really depends on the area you're working with. What area are you working with?

Quote from: networkloser on October 11, 2023, 03:49:02 AMidk if that's only me, but cissp is so basic in terms of web security perspective.

It's basic in almost everything, but it covers so much. It's a mile wide and an inch deep. Metric conversion is it's 1.26km wide and 2.54cm deep. :smug:

Homework Help / Re: Which IP do I tunnel? The ...
Last post by deanwebb - October 13, 2023, 02:09:06 PM
There's no need for tunnelling in this example. Tunnelling is done when there is a security requirement or an incompatible protocol (like IPv6 on an IPv4 backbone). If it is application-to-application tunnelling, typically that is done within the application itself and runs with the TCP/IP settings on the computer, with no need for intervention from the user or sysadmin.

Since all the devices are on IPv4, there's no need for a protocol tunnel in this example. The firewall shows a tunnel, but that is more just permitting traffic back and forth.

Ping, traceroute, and tcpdump will do ya for nearly every sysadmin issue.

But knowing something of what is happening with the routers and switches is handy. For that purpose, I recommend the CCNA Routing and Switching guides by Wendell Odom. They include a great discussion of TCP/IP along with the networking device details.

But ***THE*** ultimate TCP/IP guide is, well, The TCP/IP Guide. http://tcpipguide.com/

Homework Help / Randomly tell me what should I...
Last post by networkloser - October 13, 2023, 10:18:59 AM
 :) I got no idea about what to study. I know even you've got no idea but use your experience and tell me learning what would be useful (Not for exam but in real life as well as a linux admin).
The exam is going to be very easy, so I don't care about exam.

5.5 Application layer: Web (HTTP & HTTPS), File Transfer (FTP, PuTTY, Win SCP), Electronic Mail,
DNS, P2P Applications, Socket Programming, Application server concept, and Concept of traffic
analyzer (MRTG, PRTG, SNMP, Packet tracer, Wireshark).


This comes for 2 marks in our Engineering License Exam  :mrgreen:

The questions from here are going to be very easy like this:

https://nec.gov.np/uploads/brochure/QIG1U2wLCB230607051100.pdf

Problem is I've already bought good books on this subject and I am very much interested in learning computer networking.


So, I want to learn them in depth. Can you give me a roadmap of what should I cover in these topics?

For example, while learning about HTTP, what topics should I cover? When learning about DNS, what topics should I cover? These subjects have whole books of their own. But just tell me stuffs that I can learn within 25 pages of a textbook.
