The Network Layer
ARP
Routing Mechanics
Intra-Domain Routing
Inter-Domain Routing
100

This is the TCP/IP layer number for the Network Layer.

Layer 3

100

Address Resolution Protocol resolves these two addresses.

MAC address and IP address

100

The internet is partitioned into 50,000+ of these separate networks.

Autonomous Systems

100

Intra-Domain Routing uses this type of routing protocol.

Open Shortest Path First (OSPF)

100

Inter-domain routing uses this type of routing protocol.

Border Gateway Protocol (BGP).

200

This type of address is known as a software address.

IP address

200

This is the destination MAC address for an ARP Request.

Broadcast MAC address: FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF

200

Routers build their routing tables in this order.

Largest mask first.

200

DAILY DOUBLE!!!


Intra-Domain routing assigns weights between routers based on these 3 factors.

Distance, cost and speed.

200

Inter-domain routing protocol follows these steps to find the "good enough" path.

1. Finds all possible paths.

2. Judges path against local AS policy.

3. Choose the path with the least amount of hops.

300

The number of IP addresses available for hosts in a /28 network.

14 IP addresses.

300

DAILY DOUBLE!!!


This is the "Type" code for an ARP message.

0806

300

A router will send a packet to another router only for this reason.

The packet is destined for a network that the router is not currently a part of.

300

Intra-Domain routing protocol begins by a router first transmitting this packet.

"Hello" packet

300

This is the name of the cyber attack at the inter-domain routing level.

Routed Wide-area man-in-the-middle attack.

400

10.1.1.1 is an example of this kind of special IP address.

Private IP address

400

This is the "Operation" code for an ARP reply.

0x0002

400

If a destination IP address is destined for a network not on a routers Autonomous System, the router will send it to this route/router.

Default route/router

400

These are two defenses against an intra-domain level Man-in-the-middle attack.

Passwords and Passive Interface

400

These are three defenses against an inter-domain level Man-in-the-middle attack.

Filtering, Internet Routing Registries (IRRs), and Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI).

500

This is the broadcast address for a network ID of 10.1.1.16 /30

10.1.1.19

500

An ARP Spoofing attack matches these two addresses in an ARP Reply

Attacker's MAC address and Victim's IP Address.

500

A host can use this type of delivery if a packet is destined for another host on it's network.

Direct delivery.
500

Once an Intra-domain router assigns weights on the linkage between neighbors, it sends this type of packet to inform the entire Autonomous System of the neighbors and assigned weights.

Link State Packet

500

These networks are safe in an inter-domain man-in-the-middle attack with a back path.

Autonomous systems included in the back path.
