The project documents essential networking tools and techniques to diagnose and resolve network-related issues. The goal was to apply hands-on troubleshooting techniques to resolve real-world network problems effectively.
It focuses on the following areas of network troubleshooting:
- Analyzing IP configurations and connectivity using commands like
IPCONFIG
,PING
, andARP
. - Investigating Domain Name System (DNS) issues and caching mechanisms.
- Implementing advanced tools like
NSLOOKUP
andTRACERT
to trace routes and find IP addresses. - Identifying common failure points in network operations.
- Detailed Command Demonstrations:
- Commands like
IPCONFIG /DISPLAYDNS
,PING
, andTRACERT
are explained with output examples.
- Commands like
- Diagnostic Insights:
- How tools like
ARP
andDNS Cache
contribute to resolving network inefficiencies.
- How tools like
- Failure Analysis:
- Comprehensive listing of potential failure points in a request lifecycle, including AWS-specific issues like:
- DNS resolution and API gateway failures.
- Misconfigurations in IAM policies and VPC settings.
- Issues with services like ELB, EC2, and RDS.
- Comprehensive listing of potential failure points in a request lifecycle, including AWS-specific issues like:
