(P4, PLO5) PLOS _: Apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modem engineering and IT tools to well-defined engineering problems, with an awareness of the limitations. (DK8) OBJECTIVES Upon completion the lab session, students should be able to: 1. Understand the function of common network command tools 2. Comprehend the use of network command tools. 3. Perform basic network troubleshooting by using the network command tools. THEORY Network troubleshooting tools are a necessity for every network administrator. ‘When getting started in the networking field, it is important to amass a number of tools that can be used to troubleshoot a variety of different network conditions. While it is true that use of specific tools can be subjective and at the discretion of the engineer, most operating system such as Windows already comes with several useful network command tools. These command tools can help user to troubleshoot most basic networking issues. Among these network command, there several command which are commonly used for troubleshooting network problems, They're ipconfig, ping, netstat, tracert and nslookup. Ipconfig command is use to display the computer basic network configuration. With ipconfig/all a detailed configuration report for all interfaces including configured serial ports. ‘The command ping is usually best to verify that a route exists between the local computer and @ network host by first using the ping command and the IP address of the network host to which you want to connect. Ping can also be used with the target name instead of its IP address. tracert command is use to view the route taken by a packet to reach its target, host. If the route known, it can be used to determine where a packet stopped on the network in case of fail network.PWS - NETWORK TROUBLESHOOTING (NETWORK COMMAND TOOLS) Netsat displays network connections for Transmission Control Protocol (both incoming and outgoing), routing tables, and a number of network interface (network interface controller or software-defined network interface) and network protocol statistics. itis used for finding problems in the network and to determine the amount of traffic on the network as a performance measurement. The nslookup command is a powerful tool for diagnosing DNS problems. You know you're experiencing a DNS problem when you can access a resource by specifying its IP address but not its DNS name. For example, if you can get to www.ebay.com by typing 66.135.192.87 in your browser's address bar but not by typing www.ebay.com, you have a DNS problem. EQUIPMENT / TOOLS 4. Computer with network interface card. 2. Network and internet access. 3. Microsoft Windows Operating System. PROCEDURE First change the color of any command prompt windows screen background to white and the screen text to white. To do so, right click a command prompt window upperpart, select the colors tab and make the changes. |= “Command Prompt” Propedies x fe\> | Onions Fort nour Calor | Oscreen Tat Selected Color Vales @ Soreen Background Reds 6 | O Popp Tet cat 5 : OPorup Background ae (BBE Selected Screen Clore Cz\MINDOUS> dir SYSTEM 10-01-99 SYSTEM32 10-01-99 SEEESER eee oO | |PWS - NETWORK TROUBLESHOOTING (NETWORK COMMAND TOOLS) : IPCONFIG AND IPCONFIG/ALL, a. Open a command prompt terminal/window, b. Type ipconfig at the command prompt and press the enter <1 key. Observe and print screen the output. Bl Command Prompt c, Now open a new command prompt terminal/window. d. Type ipconfig/all at the command prompt and press the enter nslookup 127.0.0.1 ¢. Open a new command prompt terminal/widnows. d. Now type nslookup {your_polytechnic_webname} and press the enter key. Observe and print screen the output of the command. EXERCISES Using the network command tools perform these 2 tasks, 1. Find the IP address of the Kementerian Pendidikan Malaysia webpage. Use the command and print out the output screen. 2. Ifyou know the IP address of a host (computer), which command will help you to obtain the computer name with corresponding IP address, Use that command and printout the output and circle the computer name,PWS - NETWORK TROUBLESHOOTING (NETWORK COMMAND TOOLS) 6 | RESULTS Put all screen capture from your work here.
