Arp (Address Resolution Protocol)

 

WHAT IS ARP

1. ARP FIND MAC ADDRESS OF HOST FROM ITS KNOWN IP ADDRESS.

2. IT IS LAYER TWO PROTOCOL.

 3. ARP REQUEST IS A BROADCAST BUT ARP RESPONSE IS A UNICAST.

 4. THE ARP CONCEPT USED ONLY IN IPV4 ENVIRONMENT.

 5. ARP IS A NEVER GENERATED FOR THE DEVICE OF OTHER NETWORK.

6. THE ARP PROTOCOL CONVERTS THE MAC ADDRESS INTO AN IP ADDRESS.

7. THE ARP PROTOCOL CONVERTS THE MAC ADDRESS INTO AN IP ADDRESS  BUT A SWITCH COMMUNICATES BAESED ON MAC ADDRESS.

BUT IS BACKEND IS  IP ADDRESS FOR COMMUNICATION BUT WE PING ITS THE MAC-ADDRESS RESOLVED INTO IP ADDRESS.

8. THE ARP PROTOCOL IS COMMONLY USED TO FIND OUT THE MAC ADDRESS OF DEVICES.

TYPES OF ARP

1. ARP

2. PROXY ARP

3.  REVERSE ARP

4. GRATITUOS ARP

PACKET FORMATE OF ARP

____________________

IF YOU HAVE TO COMMUNICATE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD OR SEND A DATA PACKET OR TRANSMIT A DATA PACKET,THEN YOU MUST KNOW THESE THINGS IN THIS DATA PACKET. IF YOU DO NOT KNOW THESE THINGS, YOU IT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SEND DATA PACKETS.

ACCORDING TO THIS TOPOLOGY, IF A PC1 WERE TO FIND OUT THE MAC ADDRESS OF A PC2, IT WOULD SEND AN ARP REQUEST IN ONE OF THE FOLLOWING WAYS.



ACCORDING TO THIS TOPOLOGY, WHEN PC 1 WILL GENERATE AN ARP REQUEST TO THE SWITCH TO FIND OUT THE MAC ADDRESS OF PC 2, SOMETHING LIKE.

Arp Technology Formate

According My Topolgy Formate

FFF MEANS BROADCAST THE REQUEST MEANS SEND REQUEST TO ALL PC'S.

THE ARP REQUEST IS BROADCAST AND WHEN IT IS BROADCAST, THE ONE FOR WHOM IT IS BROADCAST, .WHOSE IP ADDRESS IS GIVEN IN THE DESTINATION, THAT RECIEVE THE PACKET. THEY WILL GET UP AND GENERATE A PACKET AGAIN.

BRIDGE MODE AND NAT MODE AP

  BOTH BRIDGE MODE AND NAT MODE ARE WAYS TO CONFIGURE AN ACCESS POINT (AP) TO EXTEND A NETWORK, BUT THEY DIFFER IN HOW THEY HANDLE IP ADDRESSES AND NETWORK TRAFFIC: BRIDGE MODE: CONCEPT: ACTS AS A TRANSPARENT BRIDGE, SIMPLY RELAYING DATA BETWEEN WIRED AND WIRELESS DEVICES. IP ADDRESS: DEVICES OBTAIN THEIR IP ADDRESSES FROM AN UPSTREAM DHCP SERVER, TYPICALLY THE MAIN ROUTER ON THE NETWORK. NETWORK TRAFFIC: ALL DEVICES, BOTH WIRED AND WIRELESS, ARE SEEN AS PART OF THE SAME NETWORK AND CAN DIRECTLY COMMUNICATE WITH EACH OTHER. BENEFITS: SEAMLESS ROAMING: DEVICES CAN EFFORTLESSLY SWITCH BETWEEN APS WITHOUT LOSING THEIR IP ADDRESS OR CONNECTION. SIMPLIFIED NETWORK MANAGEMENT: ALL DEVICES ARE ON THE SAME SUBNET, MAKING CONFIGURATION AND TROUBLESHOOTING EASIER. INCREASED COMPATIBILITY: WORKS WITH DEVICES THAT DON'T SUPPORT NAT TRAVERSAL (E.G., SOME VPN CLIENTS). DRAWBACKS: LESS SECURITY : ALL DEVICES ARE DIRECTLY EXPOSED TO EACH OTHER, POTENTIALLY INCREAS

DOS AND DDOS ATTACK

A Dos (Denial-Of-Service) Attack and A DDOS (Distributed Denial-Of-Service) Attack Are Both Attempts to Make a Computer System or Network Resource Unavailable to Legitimate Users. However, They Differ in How They Achieve This: Dos Attack: Imagine A Single Person Throwing Rocks at A Castle Gate. A This Person Represents the Attacker, And the Rocks Represent the Malicious Traffic. The Castle Gate Represents the Target System or Network Resource. The Attacker Keeps Throwing Rocks, Trying to Overwhelm the Gate's Defenses and Gain Entry. Dos Attacks Are Typically Launched from A Single System. They Can Be Effective Against Small Systems or Networks, But Larger Systems Can Often Withstand Them. DDos Attack: Imagine An Army Throwing Rocks at A Castle Gate. This Army Represents the Attacker, And the Rocks Represent the Malicious Traffic. The Castle Gate Represents the Target System or Network Resource. The Attackers Coordinate Their Attack, Throwing Rocks from Multiple Directions at Once.

VSC (Virtual Cluster Switching)

  VIRTUAL CLUSTER SWITCHING (VCS): THIS IS A PROPRIETARY NETWORK FABRIC TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPED BY BROCADE, LATER ACQUIRED BY EXTREME NETWORKS. IT ALLOWS MULTIPLE PHYSICAL SWITCHES TO BE COMBINED AND MANAGED AS A SINGLE LOGICAL UNIT, OFFERING SEVERAL BENEFITS: SIMPLIFIED MANAGEMENT: MANAGE THE ENTIRE VCS AS ONE ENTITY, REDUCING CONFIGURATION OVERHEAD AND TROUBLESHOOTING COMPLEXITY. INCREASED PORT DENSITY: COMBINE PORTS FROM MULTIPLE SWITCHES TO CREATE A LARGER POOL OF AVAILABLE CONNECTIONS. IMPROVED PERFORMANCE:   ENHANCE LINK UTILIZATION AND LOAD BALANCING ACROSS MULTIPLE PHYSICAL LINKS, REDUCING BOTTLENECKS. ENHANCED REDUNDANCY:   PROVIDES FAILOVER PROTECTION IN CASE OF A SWITCH FAILURE. TRAFFIC WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY REROUTED TO OTHER SWITCHES WITHIN THE VCS. SIMPLIFIED NETWORK TOPOLOGY: ELIMINATES THE NEED FOR COMPLEX LINK AGGREGATION OR SPANNING TREE PROTOCOL (STP) CONFIGURATIONS. _________ VCS, OR VIRTUAL CLUSTER SWITCHING, CAN OPERATE IN DIFFERENT MODES DEPENDI
