2. nslookup protocol used to map hardware addresses to conceptual addresses
3. netstat can determine whether a host (computer) is running
4. ping permits a NIC to read all incoming network packets
5. LAN protocol used to provision conceptual addresses dynamically
6. promiscuous mode commonly used to connect network cables together within a LAN
7. Network Interface Controller a network that connects nearby hosts directly
8. hub gives information about available network connections on a particular computer
9. Address Resolution Protocol provides information about network activity on a computer
10.Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol looks for ip address for a host name
Explanation / Answer
ipconfig (or ifconfig) --> gives information about available network connections on a particular computer nslookup --> looks for ip address for a host name netstat --> provides information about network activity on a computer ping packets --> can determine whether a host (computer) is running LAN --> a network that connects nearby hosts directly promiscuous mode --> permits a NIC to read all incoming network packets Network Interface Controller --> hardware that connects a computer to a LAN hub --> commonly used to connect network cables together within a LAN Address Resolution Protocol --> protocol used to map hardware addresses to conceptual addresses Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol --> protocol used to provision conceptual addresses dynamically
