UNIX Networking CLI Commands
In addition to being comfortable with the command line, if you are doing networking experiments on GENI you need to be comfortable with some basic networking commands.
Some skills and command you should familiarize yourself with if you aren't already:
- listing and manipulating the configuration of the interfaces on your nodes (
ifconfig
) - testing connectivity (
ping
,traceroute
,nc
,iperf
) - collecting and analyzing networking traffic (
tcpdump
and wireshark) - listing and manipulating your IP routing table (
route
) - determining the hostname of the current machine (
hostname
) - listing network connections (
netstat
) - testing connecting to individual ports using telnet (
telnet
)
Google will help you find many resources to learn about these topics.
