Study Notes

[Windows]

  • Net commands allow connecting, viewing, and sharing information to a Windows device.
  • Net view command displays available shares on a remote server. Example: SGC server with shares Classified, files, home, NETLOGON, SYSVOL, and Users.
  • Net use command maps a drive to a specified share using a drive letter and a server and a share name.
  • User command is used to manage user accounts on a device.
  • Net view command example: net view SGC to view available shares on the SGC server.
  • Net use command example: net use w: \SGC\user\Classified to map the Classified share on the SGC server to the W drive.
  • Traceroute command (trace-r-t) is used to identify the routers, or hops, a packet takes to reach a device and back.
  • Traceroute uses the ICMP protocol and Time To Live (TTL) mechanism to obtain information on routers and their IP addresses.
  • Any device that responds with a Time To Live Exceeded message provides the IP address of the identifying device.
  • Traceroute example: tracert 10.10.30.10 to view the routers, or hops, between the local and remote devices.
  • Traceroute process: traceroute sends a packet with a TTL equal to 1 and receives a Time To Live Exceeded message from the first router with the IP address of the router. The process repeats with increasing TTL values until the destination device is reached. The process provides a list of IP addresses for each router, or hop, between the local and remote devices.
  • Traceroute can help determine the availability and routing of devices on a network.
  • Traceroute can be used to identify any changes in the network routing, such as a new router or a failed router.
