Network Theory
Welcome to the NOC
The internet is built on packets. This visualizer lets you break down the invisible traffic.
Interaction: Firewall or Router nodes in the 3D view to see their settings and change network behavior!
ICMP Echo (Ping)
Ping uses the ICMP protocol to test connectivity.
Try This: Click the Firewall node and enable "Block ICMP". Then try to Ping again. You will see the packet get dropped!
Firewall Blocked
Action Dropped!
TCP 3-Way Handshake
Before data is sent, a reliable connection must be established.
SYN: "Hello, let's chat."SYN-ACK: "Received. I'm ready too."ACK: "Great, connection established."
DNS Resolution
Computers don't speak names (itechvista.com), they speak numbers (203.0.113.45).
DNS Server for the IP address.
DDoS & Firewalling
Distributed Denial of Service attempts to overwhelm the server.
Mitigation: A Firewall performs "Stateful Inspection". If it sees 100 SYN packets in 1 second from the same IP, it creates a temporary rule to DROP that traffic.
