Linux Networking Commands


https://campus.barracuda.com/doc/43846911/

To help you find and solve networking problems, this article describes some Linux utilities and their
commonly used options and parameters. Usage examples for the utilities are also provided. For more
information on any of the following utilities, see their man pages.

ip

The ip tool is a TCP/IP interface configuration and routing utility. Use it to configure and view routing,
devices, policy routing, and tunnels. You can also use it to configure network interfaces. To display all
the options for this command, enter ip at the CLI.

ip a

Displays the list of used network interfaces (physical and virtual) with their assigned MAC addresses.

[root@winix:/]# ip a 1: lo: <loopback> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue link/loopback


00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet 127.0.0.1/24 brd 127.0.0.255
scope host lo:loop 2: tap0: <broadcast> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue link/ether
fe:fd:00:00:00:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 127.0.1.1/24 brd 127.0.1.255
scope host tap0:fw 3: tap1: <broadcast> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue link/ether
fe:fd:00:00:00:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 127.0.2.1/24 brd 127.0.2.255
scope host tap1:vpn inet 169.254.1.11/32 scope global tap1:aux1 4: tap2:
<broadcast> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue link/ether fe:fd:00:00:00:00 brd
ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 127.0.3.1/24 brd 127.0.3.255 scope host tap2:vpnpers
inet 169.254.1.11/32 scope global
tap2:aux2</broadcast></broadcast></broadcast></loopback>

ip r g

Displays information about the device that is bound to the specified IP address.

[root@winix:/]# ip r g 10.0.6.31 local 10.0.6.31 dev lo src 10.0.6.31 cache


<local> mtu 16436 advmss 16396</local>

ip a a dev

Adds an IP address to the specified device.

Barracuda CloudGen Firewall

The IP address is removed again when the network or the Barracuda NG Firewall is restarted. A
device route is only added if a netmask has been given with the IP address.

[root@winix:/]# ip a a 10.0.4.236 dev eth2

ip a d dev

Deletes an IP address from the specified device.

[root@winix:/]# ip a d 10.0.4.236 dev eth2

If you use this command to remove a server or box IP address, the Control daemon will take
action and reintroduce the deleted IP addresses.

tcpdump

To inspect packets, use the tcpdump utility. It is a sniffer tool that captures packets off a network
interface and interprets them. It prints out the headers of packets on a network interface that match
the Boolean expression. It understands all basic Internet protocols. It can also be used to save entire
packets for later inspection.

OPTIONS

Use the following options to specify which network interfaces you want to inspect:

-i [interface] | any
Specifies an interface name. To execute tcpdump on all available interfaces, use any . To
combine multiple devices, use and/or .
host
Specifies a host IP address. To combine multiple hosts, use and/or .
port
Specifies a queried port. To combine multiple ports, use and/or .

[root@winix:/]# tcpdump -i eth0 -nnn -s0 host 10.0.10.10 and host 10.0.10.11
and port 801 [root@winix:/]# tcpdump -v -vv -n -nn -s0 -i any host
192.168.10.1 and 212.72.195.42 and port 443 [root@winix:/]# tcpdump -v -vv -n
-nn -s0 -i any -w /tmp/dump.cap host 192.168.10.1 and 212.72.195.42 and port
443

fsck

Linux Networking Commands 2/4


Barracuda CloudGen Firewall

If HDD/MEM tests are passing without errors, use the fsck utility with the following options to check
and repair file systems:

fsck -A -y

These options solve most of the possible errors after a power outage because the utility checks all file
systems and attempts to fix most detected file system corruption.

rpm

To check the kernel module architecture, use the rpm utility with the following options:

rpm -q --qf="%{arch}" kernel
