  • OSI Model and Network Protocols
    CHAPTER4 FOUR OSI Model and Network Protocols Objectives 1.1 Explain the function of common networking protocols . TCP . FTP . UDP . TCP/IP suite . DHCP . TFTP . DNS . HTTP(S) . ARP . SIP (VoIP) . RTP (VoIP) . SSH . POP3 . NTP . IMAP4 . Telnet . SMTP . SNMP2/3 . ICMP . IGMP . TLS 134 Chapter 4: OSI Model and Network Protocols 4.1 Explain the function of each layer of the OSI model . Layer 1 – physical . Layer 2 – data link . Layer 3 – network . Layer 4 – transport . Layer 5 – session . Layer 6 – presentation . Layer 7 – application What You Need To Know . Identify the seven layers of the OSI model. Identify the function of each layer of the OSI model. Identify the layer at which networking devices function. Identify the function of various networking protocols. Introduction One of the most important networking concepts to understand is the Open Systems Interconnect (OSI) reference model. This conceptual model, created by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in 1978 and revised in 1984, describes a network architecture that allows data to be passed between computer systems. This chapter looks at the OSI model and describes how it relates to real-world networking. It also examines how common network devices relate to the OSI model. Even though the OSI model is conceptual, an appreciation of its purpose and function can help you better understand how protocol suites and network architectures work in practical applications. The OSI Seven-Layer Model As shown in Figure 4.1, the OSI reference model is built, bottom to top, in the following order: physical, data link, network, transport, session, presentation, and application.

  • K12522815: Modifying the BIG-IP Device SSL Certificate Configuration Using the Icontrol REST API
    K12522815: Modifying the BIG-IP device SSL certificate configuration using the iControl REST API Non-Diagnostic Original Publication Date: Apr 30, 2019 Update Date: Aug 6, 2021 Topic You want to use the iControl REST API to generate and apply a new self-signed SSL device certificate and key. You want to use the iControl REST API to apply an uploaded SSL certificate and key as the device certificate. Description You can use the iControl REST API to administer the SSL certificate and key that the Configuration utility uses. You can use the procedures in this article to generate a new self-signed certificate and key, which you can apply as the certificate and key used by the Configuration utility. Additionally, you can use a subset of the procedures to upload a certificate and key to the appropriate directories and then apply these as the certificate and key used by the Configuration utility. Typographic conventions The following typographic conventions are used in the command syntax examples: Note: If you are a new user of the iControl REST API, refer to K13225405: Common iControl REST API command examples. POST = curl -sk -u admin:<password> -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST https://<big-ip address> PUT = curl -sk -u admin:<password> -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X PUT https://<big-ip address> GET = curl -sk -u admin:<password> -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X GET https://<big-ip address> Prerequisites You must meet the following prerequisites to use this procedure: The BIG-IP system is licensed, provisioned, and configured with a management IP address.

  • SSH Solutions on Openvms Technical Overview
    SSH Solutions on OpenVMS Technical Overview SSH Solutions Process Software delivers SSH solutions on OpenVMS as a feature of MultiNet and TCPware TCP/IP stacks or as a standalone product with SSH for OpenVMS. SSH for OpenVMS turns VAX, Alpha and Integrity computers into secure application servers in multi-platform environments, and integrate OpenVMS systems with virtually any other system through industry-standard SSH over TCP/IP. The De-Facto Standard for Network Security The SSH protocol is an IETF standard used by millions of people and thousands of organizations all over the world. Process Software’s SSH products are based on ICSA-certified code base. The cryptographic library used is compiled from unaltered source code that is FIPS 140-2 compliant, as determined by the Computer Security Division of the National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST). It is widely used by government organizations and large enterprises. SSH Features Process Software’s SSH products enables remote systems administrators, telecommuters, and other users to access corporate networks without revealing passwords and confidential data to potential eavesdroppers. The main features include: • Supports both SSH v1 and SSH v2 protocols in the client and server • Provides secure file transfer with Secure File Transfer Protocol v2 (SFTP v2) client and server, Secure Copy Protocol v2 (SCP v2) client and server, and Secure File Copy Protocol v1 (SCP v1) server. • Replaces Telnet, FTP, and R services with secure connections • Encrypts X-11 displays using X-11 forwarding

  • Setting up Logset Remote Service
    1 Aapo Koskela SETTING UP LOGSET REMOTE SERVICE Introducing Logset REDI and Logset Manager Technology and Communication 2020 VAASAN AMMATTIKORKEAKOULU UNIVERSITY OF APPLIED SCIENCES Information Technology ABSTRACT Author Aapo Koskela Title Setting up Logset Remote Service Year 2020 Language English Pages 30 Name of Supervisor Gao, Chao Logset had a need to develop remote support and control service, which could be used by service personnel and selected resellers. There was also a need for Fleet Management for handling big data, which could be developed with remote ser- vice. Logset started developing both services and as a result, they had to be docu- mented. The purpose of this thesis was to strengthen Logset’s internal knowledge of new upcoming services, and to generate work instructions for setting up, and the usage of Logset REDI Service. Thesis instructions were written based on interviews with the developers of the service and by personal experiences from the testing. During writing this thesis, REDI Service and Logset Manager were being simul- taneously developed. Logset had implemented objective and basic setup which was then followed by first testing in theory and then in practice, and before the thesis was finished, were both REDI Service and Fleet Management announced publicly. The thesis presents features that are available now, and those that will probably be available in near future. The work instructions will be taken in use as soon as wide-scale installations in the factory and field will begin.
