* From the output of the /sbin/route command, you should be able to tell which networks (LANs) your machine is directly connected (the 1st column) and which gateway (the 2nd column) your machine could be used should use to reach other networks. Consult the "man" page for "route" for more details.
* If there is no "Gateway" for your machine, your machine can only communicate with other machines that are physically connected.
* Any two physically (or directly) connected network machines must know each other's physical network address (i.e. MAC address) before that can start exchanging data. The MAC address exchange process could occur automatically (default) or manually (to be done by the system administrator). To display the list of MAC address known to your machine, type the command "/sbin/arp". Record the output for later use:
# What is the MAC address for the network device that has the IP address 192.168.1.254?
# How do you display all the physically network addresses known by a Linux machine?
# What is the MAC address of the network device on the default gateway for the Linux machine on matrix?
