The net_practice project is an introduction to networking fundamentals, specifically focusing on IP addressing, subnet masking, and routing. It serves as a practical exercise to equip students with the foundational knowledge for understanding computer networks.
This project focuses on networks, it was designed to help students gain practical experience in networking concepts and protocols, it aims to provide hands-on experience with networking fundamentals, including but not limited to:
- Socket programming
- TCP/IP protocol stack
- Client-server architecture
- Network troubleshooting
- Packet analysis
Students will implement various networking tasks and challenges, progressively enhancing their understanding of how data is transmitted over networks and how different networking protocols operate.
- Socket Programming Exercises: Implement socket-based communication between client and server applications.
- TCP/IP Protocol Analysis: Explore the TCP/IP protocol stack and learn how to analyze network traffic.
- Network Troubleshooting: Debug and resolve common networking issues.
- Protocol Implementation: Implement custom network protocols for specific applications.
