Purpose
In the first part of the lab, you will perform reconnaissance from the wide area network. The purpose of this lab is to show you how you can use Nmap to identify open ports and Netcat and telnet for banner grabbing. You will then learn how to use an exploit framework like Metasploit® to get access to the password file and use a password cracking tool like John the Ripper® to crack the password, and then login using admin access. In the second part of the lab you will use Kali Linux to scan a local area network and then use Metasploit and Armitage to exploit vulnerabilities.
Lab Instructions
Part 1:
Complete the labs “Performing Reconnaissance from the WAN” and “Scanning the network on the LAN.” In the lab environment, you will find step-by-step instructions. As you work through the labs, there will be capture-the-flag challenges.
