'''NAD710 - Introduction to Networks - Using Linux'''

= Objective =
Using the following commands to collect host information and network settings on a Linux Machine:
* hostname
* uname
* /sbin/ifconfig
* /sbin/route
* /sbin/lspci
* /sbin/lsmod
* /sbin/modinfo

= Background Information =
In order for a computer to communicate with other computers on a local area network, a few network settings must be assigned to the computer. A few more are needed if those computers are on the Internet or other LANs. Follow the steps below to collect the network settings and some useful information of a host in the Matrix Cluster:
* MAC Address
* IP address
* Network Mask
* Broadcast address
* Network address
* IP address(es) of the gateway(s)
* hostname
* list of PCI device
* Network device driver
* Linux Kernel information

You can use the same steps to collect the same information on your own Fedora Core machine.
