Network

  • Network namespace explained in 15 mins

    • different and separate instances of network interfaces and routing tables that operate independent of each other.

  • IP forwarding

    • let's say you have two NetworkInternetControllers, one (NIC 1) is at address 192.168.2.1/24, and the other (NIC 2) is 192.168.3.1/24. If forwarding is enabled, and a packet comes in on NIC 1 with a "destination address" of 192.168.3.8, the router will resend that packet out of the NIC 2.

  • Network address translation (NAT)
