Explain network classes.

43.Explain network classes.
Ans.
1. TCP/IP network are 4 bytes long, called IP addresses and written in dotted-decimal notation. (ex. 192.168.166.5)

2. The decimal numbers must be within the numeric range of 0-255, each IPv4 addresses consist of 4 parts.

3. Each part should conform to the 1-byte requirement.

4. Depending on the value of the first byte of the address, IP addresses can be divided into classes.

5. Network classes are of 3 type and have some specific range
Class A 0-127
Class B 128-191
Class C 192-233

6. Class division enables us efficient use of the address numbers.

7. Assigned network numbers are maintained in a database managed by InterNIC to insure that each assignment is unique.

8. After obtaining a network number, the host numbers may be assigned as required, for data transfer ARP maps the IP address to the MAC address of the device.

9. Routers are used for transferring data between 2 devices, routers are default gateway they must be configured.

10. Routers has an internal program called a routing table, which it uses to send the data to a host or another router.

Explain how to configure DHCP client?

50.Explain how to configure DHCP client? Ans. 1. Before configuring DHCP, NIC should be configured properly and recognized by the system. 2. After that it’s easy to command system to use DHCP to obtain its IP information. 3. Configuring DHCP client involves following steps : a. Open the /etc/sysconfig/networkscripts/ifcfg-eth0 file. b. Find the line bootproto=static c. Change the static to dhcp. d. Save changes. e. Restart the network by issuing command ‘service network restart’, after that system will receive its IP information from the DHCP server.

Explain memory and virtual file system in Linux.

22.Explain memory and virtual file system in Linux. Ans. 1. These file systems do not exist on disk in the same way that traditional file systems do, they either exists entirely in the system memory or they are virtual because they are an interface to system devices. 2. cramfs: cramfs is designed to cram a file System onto a small flash memory device, so it is small, simple and able to compress things well. The largest file size is 16MB and the largest file system size is 256MB since cramfs is so compressed, it isn’t instantly updateable. 3. tmpfs: tmpfs is structured around the idea that whatever is put in the /tmp file system is accessed again shortly, tmpfs solely in memory, so what you put in /tmp doesn’t persist between reboots. 4. ramfs: ramfs is basically cramfs without the compression. 5. romfs: This is a read only file system that is mostly used for initial ramdisks of installation disks. It was designed to take up very little space, so you could fit a ke...
