    Study Notes

    Remote Login Protocols

    • SSH (Secure Shell) is considered more secure for remote login due to its encryption and secure authentication mechanisms.

    Telnet

    • Telnet typically connects to port 23.
    • To "telnet" means to remotely login to a computer or network device.

    TCP/IP Protocol Suite

    • The top layer of the TCP/IP protocol suite is the Application layer.

    SSH vs Telnet

    • SSH is preferred over Telnet for remote login due to SSH's encryption and secure authentication, whereas Telnet transmits data in plain text.

    MAC Addresses

    • A MAC (Media Access Control) address is 48 bits or 6 bytes long.
    • MAC addresses operate at the Data Link layer (Layer 2) of the OSI model.

    Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)

    • The purpose of ARP is to resolve IP addresses to MAC addresses.

    Networking Terminology

    • NIC stands for Network Interface Card in the context of networking.

    MAC Address Types

    • Multicast MAC addresses are used for one-to-many communication.
