=== Investigation 7: How can I see what network services or ports are active on my Fedora system? ===
{{Admon/note | Note! Use All Machines | Complete this investigation on all of your VM's and the Fedora host.}}
{{Admon/note | Please take note! Network Ports | When our Fedora system provides any services on a network, those services are accessible through a port number. All network services are configured to be accessed on a particular port number. By examining which ports are active on our system we can know what services (and points of attack) are available on our system. The ability to examine this information is important for troubleshooting network services and securing our systems. One great tool for this is the <code>netstat</code> command.}}
# On your fedora host execute the command <code>netstat -at</code>
