It is possible to use a Linux host as a simple router.

It is possible to use the ip command to manipulate the routing table on a Linux host.
It is not possible to configure a 'one-armed router' in Linux.
It is not possible to use the ip command with the route command.
Using the route command is one of the easiest ways to display your route table.
ip route show table main is a valid entry on the command-line.
The netstat program is used to display the status of all of the network connections on a host.
Linux ifconfig and ip commands do not yet support IPv6.
The ifconfig program usually resides in the ______________ directory.
/bin

A server must be present on each subnet on which DHCP is assigned.
This lease dictates how long the client may keep this address.
DHCP is handy for those who travel from office to office.
Declarations alter the behavior of the server for the relevant group or clients.
In Fedora, the default primary configuration is /etc/dhcpd.conf
The DHCP client and server are available to assist us with DHCP in Linux
The DHCP client is started and it broadcasts a request on the network asking for an e-mail address.
Parameters alter the behavior of the server for the relevant group or clients.
Each address is issued with an associated bill of sale.
The Linux DHCP sever is unique and does not act like other DHCP servers.
The ISC DHCP server is the de facto for many Linux distributions.
Once a request is received, the server checks its database and issues an appropriate response.
In Ubuntu, the default primary configuration is /etc/dhcpd.conf .
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Daemon (DHCPD) is the client.
