Virtualization
Virtualization is everywhere these days, and in this course, you will be presented with virtual machines to use in exercises.
Your words on virtualization
Using a variation on the Feynman technique, work with the topic of "Virtualization".
- Write ½ page about "Virtualization"
- Highlight 5 places in your text where you feel the weakest
-
Research the 5 topics
Make a list of the 5 topics, add relevant links and 1-2 sentences of clarifying comments.
-
(Optional) Reiterate 1-3
Time will probably not allow for multiple iterations.
-
Put the topics, links and comments in a shared document.
Install Vmware workstation
Install VM ware workstation. This will be used for exercises later in the course.
- Download and install the evaluation version. See here
Run Kali Live
-
Download the Kali linux .iso file from here
Unless you have non-standard hardware, you want the "Kali linux 64-Bit (Live)"
-
(While downloading) Research what "live" means in this context.
Make notes of relevant links.
-
Make a drawing of what virtual hardwar that is needed to use a VM and access the network.
To make nice looking computer drawn diagram, a suggestions is to use yEd. A video about it here
-
Create a new virtual machine and use the iso file as "CDROM".
See e.g. this question and this about .iso files.
-
Start a terminal inside the Kali box, and post a screenshot of
traceroute 8.8.8.8
If you know, please explain what is shown.
