Overview

Understanding computer networks is essential in today's interconnected world. This repository aims to provide practical implementations of fundamental networking concepts, helping you grasp theoretical concepts through hands-on coding.

Implemented Concepts

  • Socket Programming: Implementations of basic client-server communication using sockets in various programming languages.
  • Packet Sniffing: Examples demonstrating how to capture and analyze network traffic to understand protocols and data exchange.
  • Routing Algorithms: Implementations of routing algorithms such as Dijkstra's algorithm, Bellman-Ford, etc., for understanding how routers make decisions.
  • Network Protocols: Simple implementations of network protocols like TCP, UDP, HTTP, etc., to understand their functioning at a code level.
  • Network Security: Basic examples illustrating network security concepts like encryption, decryption, hashing, etc.
  • Network Simulation: Scripts to simulate network scenarios, latency, packet loss, etc., using tools like NS-3 or custom scripts.
