Configure Routing Table In Such a Way So That We Can Ping Only Google IP Not FaceBook Ip

ARTH — Task 13 👨🏻‍💻

Task Description📄

🔰 Create a Setup so that you can ping google but not able to ping Facebook from same system

For this task I have a Virtual Machine at my local system , which has IP — 192.168.1.5

# ifconfig enp0s3

Check Route Table rule -

# route -n

In my route table rule first rule is whenever we need to go public world then system will use “192.168.1.5”. But we want that our system only connect to Google not Facebook IP.

* Check Googe is pingable or not — ( It is pingable)

# ping www.google.com

* Check FaceBook is pingable or not — (It is also pingable)

# ping www.facebook.com

Now we have to configure Routing Table Rules -

(A) Delete “0.0.0.0” destination routing table rule -

# route del -net 0.0.0.0 enp0s3

(B) Find Google Server Ips Ranges -

• In my case I will only configure rule for one IP Range (“172.217.0.0–172.217.174.255”)

# route add -net 172.217.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 gw 192.168.1.254 enp0s3

“192.168.1.254” is my Router or gateway

Now ping to these Google Ip Range Server -

# ping 172.217,174.228

Now ping FaceBook Server Ips -

> To know facebook server Ips visit this link -

I will ping One facebook server “www.facebook.com”-

# ping www.facebook.com

We see our system is not able to ping facebook server ip

Now we have configured routing table In Such a Way So That We Can Ping Only Google IP Not FaceBook Ip

Now our task is successfully done .
