Episode 163 — Network Tools — Using Ping, Tracert, IP, NSLookup, Netstat, and More
Notes de l’épisode
In this episode, we explain how to use essential network troubleshooting tools effectively. Ping verifies connectivity and measures latency, while Tracert or Traceroute maps the path packets take through the network. IP or ifconfig commands show network interface configurations. NSLookup or dig queries DNS records directly to diagnose name resolution issues. Netstat displays active connections and listening ports to detect unusual activity or service problems.
We also explore advanced tools like packet capture utilities, curl for HTTP testing, and OpenSSL for certificate inspection. On the Cloud+ exam, familiarity with these utilities and their output is necessary for rapid problem identification and resolution.
