This set of demos and lab goes along with the coursera course: Network Principles in Practice: Linux. You are welcome to run this code and I try to make it as self explanatory as possible, but some of the explanation will be in the videos for the course.
NOTE: Mac M1/M2 users should refer to the guidance here
A Vagrantfile is provided that will create a Ubuntu 22.04 VM, and install the needed software on the VM.
This was tested using vagrant VirtualBox running on Windows 11.
vagrant up
Configure your ssh client with the following. I use MobaXterm. Hostname/IP address: 127.0.0.1 Port number: 2222 Username: vagrant Private Key: <path/to/private_key> Note: you’ll want x11 forwarding on
To get the location of the private key:
vagrant ssh-config
When you want to stop the VM, you can either run vagrant suspend to save the state so you can resume it later with vagrant up, or vagrant halt to shut the VM down.
Module 2 provides an overview of using Linux as a router. The material provided will overview some commands (e.g., using iproute2), as well as running routing softer (bird).
This is the material provided for the coursera course. A description of the lab and a script to run your solution and package up a submission are provided.
