Study Notes

  • Lecture on TCP IP network model, DNS, and HTTP protocols as part of a cybersecurity course
  • Objective to understand TCP IP network model, DNS, and HTTP protocols more deeply
  • Explanation of how computers communicate over a network using IP addresses and port numbers
  • Introduction to the TCP IP stack and network layers in communication
  • Emphasis on the importance of understanding network concepts for cybersecurity programming
  • Instructions on checking IP address on Windows and Mac systems
  • Tools like Telnet and NS lookup for network troubleshooting and diagnostics
  • HTTP protocol used for accessing web pages with examples like visiting Google or Facebook
  • Breakdown of a URL structure: protocol (HTTP), host (server name), resource (file or folder)
  • Overview of how browsers convert domain names to IP addresses using DNS service
  • Simplified explanation of packet communication between computers over a network- HTML instructs the browser to connect to a server, access a specific folder and retrieve a file.
  • HTTP stands for Hypertext Transfer Protocol, used to connect to servers on port 80 for standard connections or port 443 for secure connections.
  • HTTP is a set of rules defining commands like 'get' to request files from web servers.
  • HTTP response codes indicate the status of the request, such as 200 for success and 404 for file not found.
  • DNS (Domain Name System) functions as a global address book translating domain names to IP addresses.
  • DNS lookup tools like NS lookup can be used to find IP addresses for domain names.
  • Packets are data units sent over a network using TCP/IP protocol, visible in tools like Wireshark.
  • Wireshark captures network traffic, showing DNS requests/responses and HTTP request/response packets.
  • Understanding TCP/IP stack and packet structure is essential for Python programming involving network communication.
  • Communicating with the instructor for clarification and asking questions is crucial for understanding complex topics like networking.
