Explain network configuration files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts.

41.Explain network configuration files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts.
Ans.
1. We can use the files in this directory to set the parameters for the hardware and software used for networking.

2. These scripts are used to enable network interface and set other network-related parameters.

3. Ifcfg-networkinterfacename
Red hat specifies a separate configuration file for each network interface.
In typical Red hat install, we have many different network interface configuration files that all follow the same basic syntax and format.

4. ifup and ifdown
These files are symlinks to /sbin/ifup and /sbin/ifdown, these scripts are called when the network service is started or stopped.
We call the scripts with the name of interface that we want to bring up or down.
For instance, to bring Ethernet interface down and up again after boot, we will type command
Ifup eth0
Ifdown eth0

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 ...
