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.
