Less related to networking, but another video idea in this style might be explaining the difference between Encoding, Encryption, Hashing etc. Those terms get misused a lot and are really useful to understand
Been watching your content for a couple years now and I am absolutely floored with the change in quality and presentation you've made over time. I am excited to see what you create in the future. I have been a big fan of your Minecraft stuff, it used to be a big part of my life way back in the alpha days when a friend and I used to run a server. Edit: The advertisement at the end was awesome!
I love the way you have just explained things in details, as an ethical hacker/Pentester I love the small details which don't seems to matter but they matter a lot.👍👏👏
I don't understand why all the other video's I watched on this topic didn't just say go read RFC 791, RFC 9293, & RFC 9112 and now you know how things work. Thanks for finally clearing up how things actually work!
you are making me starting thinking i know everything about computers obviously I don't but dumbed down explanations like this makes it so everything just makes since and helps me understand better with what I don't know thanks for making these videos man : )
I always have an analogy in my head: a person sitting in a room without window, only communicate with the rest of world through a small hole. you can only send/receive go chess one by one. Then, how to solve problems like: information integrity, addressing, multiplexing etc? that’s the OSI model. In my opinion this analogy is quite accurate for electronics communication, meaning almost all these devices using wire and electrical signal to talk(Ethernet, TTL, SATA etc.) face to same problem/concept(or wireless connection mostly abstract a wire).
I can see why you did it, but even implying for simplicity that switches look at IP addresses is definitely going to make any network admin cringe. However, the main point of the video is that most hackers don't need to know how their packets are transmitted and just need to know general information about how the protocol works. Since accepting abstraction as a hacker (most the time) appears to be the main thesis of this video, this video works. Networking can be a very dry topic. Networking 1 was the only class I've ever taken where the professor had to give us a 5 minute break in the middle so we didn't fall asleep. And that was only the first 3 of ~16 total credit hours worth of classes I needed on networking for my undergrad. So tl;dr: This video is for hackers who don't know anything about networking. It is a deep dive, but networking is so deep a subject that this barely scratches the surface.
I just start watching this video and I already gave a like for 2 reasons. First and more important it is a LIveOverflow video, so it is guarantee that it would be a super hight content quality Senconde and funniest, the work this guy did to record himself being a computer and send and receiving message hahahahaah
You can think of it like taking a letter and wrapping it in envelopes, with each envelope containing addressing information. First it gets wrapped in a TCP or UDP envelope, then that gets wrapped in an IP envelope, then THAT gets wrapped in an Ethernet or WiFi envelope, and then that gets passed to your mail courier.
i have some basic concept about 4-layer of computer network. but this video still impress me alot ! what a wondeful discovery of journey in computer network ! really high quality video !
Good work, it was helpful and easy to understand. I also loved the small animations you created. for the suggestion I would say SSL and different kinds of it are confusing for me, I think it's worth a video. Thanks!
Exactly, if you are a hacker, learn and ask questions yourself how it works. If you understand the basics very well of the OSI and TCP/IP layers then everything will makes sense to you. Networking is an art. In reality, you can write code to interact to your TCP/IP driver in Windows using Windows Sockets API, that interacts with Network Driver Interface Specification (NDIS) , that interacts with your NIC driver. So many abstractions ;) Do not forget, there are more protocols then TCP/IP, before we had IPX/SPX. Novell used NetBEUI and Microsoft used NetBIOS for file sharing protocols like SMB. Hence, Novell had NDS (Novell Directory Services), but Microsoft (i think copied it ) and made AD (Active Directory), and since Windows 2000 the revolution had begun. Windows XP came alive. Ahh the times, yes I feel old.
it sometimes is interesting to see the protocol in order to break it. It isn't always the application layer with the exploit, the protocol itself can also be vulnerable, such as sending strange URLs and URIs to a webserver attacking the http layer implementation, or SYN flooding or SYN port scanning attacking the TCP layer directly without any application ever knowing about that it's happening because a full connection is never made.
Thank you LiveOwerflow , I was looking for this exact video , I was not able to understand it before but not its all clear !! Thanks a lot !! I hope you will keep this good work up !! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Again an awesome video! You really have a talent to explain things, thank you so much for this. Since you asked for a topic suggestion, I always struggle with certificates 🤷♂
Your explanations are some of the best out there! I'm looking forward very much for the tunneling video, I already know it'll be awesome! Also, ever since I got Liveoverfont, I've been programming 10x more efficient!
What a great content. Really wish I had these type of resources back in school. I had to buy a notebook and draw all of these concepts with my shitty drawing skills to make my brain understand the concepts. Textbooks and professor presentations are nice, but these visual representations are great. Really helps students to understand abstract concepts with real world graphics.
Great video sir 👏👏 the hackers touch is super. please pick “sys calls” as topic for next as it is confusing to know how sys calls interacts with application in various operating systems. i vaguely know there is a lot of common things
The thing that made networking click for me more than anything else was looking at full software implementations like overlay and alternate networks. Coming from Java, the I2P source code went a long way. It might be nice to cover it from this perspective, as it not only recreates the different layers but also actively addresses some common problems as security issues.
Reading the title got me so hyped. I've been wanting to learn more about networking for a while now and have so far struggled to find comprehensive resources that connect well for me. (No pun intended). I've yet to watch the video, but I've already got this feeling it'll be the thing Ive been looking for. Thanks LiveOverflow, please keep making awesome content
Thank you very much, you are the blessing we need, just at the right time to save us from indian talk and abstract college teaching, wish you all goods.
