=LAB PREPARATION=[[Image:my-network.png|thumb|right|350px|Setting up networks is an essential operation for a system administrator. Maintaining network connectivity and securing the network are also essential operations. In this lab, we will '''configure a Virtual Private Network using static IP addresses''' (eg. wired workstation connections).

You will first set up a '''virtual private network (VPN)''' among those machines. In addition, you will learn to set up '''network names''' (to associate with server's IP Addresses), '''associate network services with port numbers''' for troubleshooting purposes, and use shell scripts with arrays to store network configuration data. <u>Main Objectives</u> # Configure a private (virtual) network for your '''VMs''' and your '''c7host''' machine# Configure network interfaces for your Virtual Machines using both '''graphical''' and '''command-line''' utilities.# Use '''local hostname resolution''' to resolve simple server names with their corresponding IP Addresses# Use common networking utilities to associate network services with port numbers for troubleshooting purposes# Use '''shell scripts with arrays''' to store network configuration data {|cellpadding="15" width="80%" cellspacing="0" |- valign="top" |colspan="3" style="font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;border-bottom: thin solid black;border-spacing:0px;"|Minimum Required Materials<br> |colspan="2" style="font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;border-bottom: thin solid black;border-spacing:0px;padding-left:20px;"|Linux Command Reference<br> |- valign="top" | |[[Image:harddrive.png|thumb|left|75px|<b>Removable SATA Hard Disk</b>]] |style="padding-left:20px;" |[[Image:ubs-key.png|thumb|left|85px|<b>USB key</b><br>(for backups)]] |style="padding-left:20px;" |[[Image:log-book.png|thumb|left|70px|<b>Lab6 Log Book</b>]] |style="padding-left:20px;" | Networking Utilities<br>[http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/ifconfig.8.html ifconfig]<br>[http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/ip.8.html ip]<br>[http://www.serverlab.ca/tutorials/linux/administration-linux/configure-centos-6-network-settings/ system-config-network]<br>[http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/route.8.html route]<br>[http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/ping.8.html ping]<br>[http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/arp.8.html arp]<br>[http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/netstat.8.html netstat]<br>|style="padding-left:20px;" |Additional Utilities<br>[http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/find.1.html find]<br>[http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/tail.1.html tail]<br>[http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/cp.1.html cp]|} =INVESTIGATION 1: CONFIGURING A VIRTUAL PRIVATE NETWORK (VPN)= For the remainder of this course, we will focus on networking involving our VMs. This lab will focus on setting up a virtual private network ('''VPN'''), connecting our VMs and c7host machine to the VPN, and configuring our VPN to make more convenient to use, troubleshoot and protect. '''Lab 7''' will focus on configuring SSH and making access to the VPN more secure. Finally, '''lab 8''' will focus on configuring mobile (as well as wired devices) via DHCP to automatically assign an IP address. There are several reasons for creating '''VPNs'''. The main reason is to '''safely connect servers together''' (i.e. to safely limit but allow the sharing of information among computer network users). This allows for a secure connection of computers yet controlling access to and monitoring (protecting) access to permitted users (discussed later in '''lab7'''). [[Image:network-config-centos.png|thumb|400px|right|This diagram shows the current network configuration of your '''c7host''' machine in relation to your '''Virtual Machines'''. In this section, you will be learning to change the default network settings for both your '''c7host''' machine and '''VMs''' to belong to a '''virtual network''' using fixed IP Addresses. ]]===Part 1: Configuring a Private Network (Via Virtual Machine Manager) === If we are going to setup a private network, there are a number of steps to perform: First, '''define a new private network in the Virtual Manager application'''; and second, '''configure each of our VMs to connect to this new private network'''. In Part 1, we will be perform the first operation. In part 2, we will be performing the second operation for all VMS (graphical and command-line). Before configuring our network, we want to '''turn off dynamic network configuration for our Virtual Machines''' by turning off the '''"default"''' virtual network. We will then define our virtual private network. :'''Perform the following steps:''' # Launch your '''c7host VM''' and start the Virtual Machine Manager.# Make certain that the '''centos1''', '''centos2''', and '''centos3''' virtual machines are '''<u>powered off</u>'''.# In the Virtual Machine Manager dialog box, select '''Edit'''-> '''Connection Details'''.# In the '''Connection Details''' dialog box, select the '''Virtual Networks''' tab# Click to <u>de-select</u> the '''Autostart (on boot)''' check-box options and click the '''Apply''' button.# Stop the default network configuration by clicking on the '''stop''' button at the bottom left-side of the dialog box.# Click the '''add''' button (the button resembles a "plus sign") to add a new network configuration.# Type the network name called: '''network1''', and then click the '''Forward''' button.# In the next screen, enter the '''new network IP address space''' called: '''192.168.235.0/24'''# Disable the '''DHCP4''' check box and click the '''Forward''' button.# Click the '''Forward''' button again to accept the default in the next screen.# Enable Network Forwarding by Selecting '''Forwarding to physical network''', the destination should be '''Any physical device''' and the mode should be '''NAT'''# Proceed with changes, and click '''Finish'''.<ol> <li value="13">We will now reconfigure each of our VMs to use our new virtual network '''network1'''<ol type="a"> <li value="1">Let's start with our '''centos1 VM'''.

Since network services (such as file-server, print-servers, web-servers, and email-servers) depend on network connectivity, as Linux/Unix sysadmin must be able to quickly and effectively pin-point sources of network problems in order to resolve them. Network service problems may not be entirely related to a "broken" network connection, but a service that is not running or not running correctly. The following table lists the most common listing of utilities to assist with detection of network connectivity or network service problems to help correct the problem. :'''Perform the following steps:''' #Switch to your '''c7host''' machine.#Issue the '''ping''' command to test connectivity to your '''centos1''', '''centos2''', and '''centos3''' VMs.#Examine the contents of the ARP cache by using the command: <b><code><span style="color:#3366CC;font-size:1.2em;">arp</span></code></b> What is the purpose of ARP?#Check the contents of the cache again by using the command: <b><code><span style="color:#3366CC;font-size:1.2em;">arp -n</span></code></b> What was the difference in output? #Issue the following command: <b><code><span style="color:#3366CC;font-size:1.2em;">netstat -at</span></code></b> This command will list all active TCP ports. Note the state of your ports. '''TCP''' is a connection oriented protocol that uses a handshaking mechanism to establish a connection. Those ports that show a state of LISTEN are waiting for connection requests to a particular service. For example you should see the ssh service in a LISTEN state as it is waiting for connections. <ol><li value="6">From one of your VM's login to your host using the '''ssh''' command.</li><li>On your c7host VM rerun the <b><code><span style="color:#3366CC;font-size:1.2em;">netstat -at</span></code></b> command and in addition to the '''LISTEN''' port it should list a 2nd entry with a state of ESTABLISHED. This shows that there is a current connection to your ssh server.</li><li>Exit your ssh connection from the VM and rerun the command on the CentOS host. Instead of '''ESTABLISHED''' it should now show a state of '''CLOSE_WAIT'''.

We will use the ssh command in order to grab the network information (one VM at a time), and store the network setup into an Associative array in our c7host machine.
