Goals
- (Gabriel) Get DC to communicate with TCS via TCP/IP
Log
- Connected DC to TCS via gray ethernet cable. Saw changes in DC-reported
ipconfig
before and after (see below). - We see that the new connections find MAC addresses and IPs, but we don't know where the IPs come from.
- We followed this tutorial https://www.maketecheasier.com/connect-two-windows-computer-on-lan/
- After the tutorial, T.C.S connects to D.C 0. With TCP/IP connection on, Zenmap detects host up on 192.168.0.2:5003 (IP address : port)
- A Wireshark scan confirms connection to T.C.S from D.C. and it also confirms packets are sent (converting hexadecimal output from wireshark to ASCII confirms command was sent)

The first 3 packets are the connection of the TCP/IP client to the TCP server. The rest are commands sent which seem to be successful, but they don't update the values in DFMTCS.
BIG NOTE:
It is very possible that the DFM software is bugging due to some change we made. Connecting to itself from T.C.S no longer works like it did previously. The DFMTCS logs confirm that DFMTCS detects both the connection from the client and the TCP packets/commands.
Connecting the T.C.S to the D.C and sending commands from D.C also doesn't work, however DFMTCS logs on the TCS confirm DFMTCS detects commands and connection again.

You can see Ethernet2 is disconnected, then changes to have some config.
