... This memo is an introductory guide to some of the most commonly-available TCP/IP and Internet tools and utilities that allow users to access the wide variety of information on the network ...
... discussion lists accessible fromthe Internet, ways to obtain Internet and TCP/IP documents, and some resources that help users weave their way through the Internet. This memo may be used as a tutorial for individual self-learning, a step-by-step laboratory manual for a course, or as the basis for a site's users manual. It is intended as a basic guide only and will

... TCP/IP utilities and applications, including the reproduction of actual sessions using these utilities (with some extraneous information removed). Each section describes a single TCP/IP-based tool, it's application, and, in some cases, how it works. The text description is usually followed by an actual sample session. ...

... PC. While the examples below can be used as a guide to using and learning about the capabilities of TCP/IP tools, the reader should understand that not all of these utilities may be found at all TCP/IP hosts nor in all commercial software packages. Furthermore, the user interface for different packages will be different and the actual command line ...
... sessions are not shown in this RFC because of the desire to have a text version of this document; in addition, most GUI-based TCP/IP packages obscure some of the detail that is essential for understanding what is really happening when you click on a button
or drag a file. The Internet has many exciting things to offer but standardized interfaces to the protocols is not yet one of them! This guide will not provide any detail or motivation about the Internet Protocol Suite ...
... Internet has many exciting things to offer but standardized interfaces to the protocols is not yet one of them! This guide will not provide any detail or motivation about the Internet Protocol Suite; more information about the TCP/IP protocols and related issues may be found in RFC 1180 [29], Comer [6 ...

... Ping, reportedly an acronym for the Packet Internetwork Groper, is one of the most widely available tools bundled with TCP/IP software packages. Ping uses a series of Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP ...

... This guide discusses several TCP/IP and Internet utilities that require local client software, such as Finger ...
... This is done by specifying a port number with the TELNET command. Just as TCP/IP hosts have a unique IP address, applications on the host ...
... FTP [26] is one of the most useful and powerful TCP/IP utilities for the general user. FTP allows users to upload and download files between local and remote hosts ...
... The "help ?" command may be used to obtain a list of FTP commands and help topics available with your software; although not always shown, nearly all TCP/IP applications have a help command. An example of the help for FTP's type command is shown in the sample dialogue. This command is very important one, by the way; if transferring a binary
or executable file, be sure to set the type to image (or binary on some systems). ...
... host. The output from the dir command will show a file listing that is consistent with the native operating system of the remote host. Although the TCP/IP suite is often associated with UNIX, it can (and does) run with nearly all common operating systems. The directory information shown in the sample dialogue happens to be in UNIX ...
