In Computer Engineering 530, Advanced Protocols and Network,
I Learned about various types of networks, and protocols including
DNS,
ARPs, TCP, UDP, and IP. I also wrote a packet sniffer to
interpret network traffic. I did this by starting with an open source project called TCP
Dump witch would grab the all of the bits off of the
network. I took the Dump program and added
additional functionality to decipher the bit strings
coming off the network.
this was a very good project, I learned a lot
from this class and the project I found it to be one of
the most interesting classes that I have ever taken hear
at Iowa State or any were else. I would certainly
recommend this class to anyone interested in networking
or field related to it.
