-#linux #device-mapper
-
----
-Device mapper is a kernel driver to map physical block devices to virtual ones; this means that for example we can have many physical devices be represented by a single virtual one (linear mapping).
-
-How does it work?
-[[1 projects/Inwerken Mohammed/TODO]]
-What is its function in relation to multipath?
-
-Logical devices using device-mapper can be managed using `man 8 dmsetup`
-```
-[jasras@n04.compute.vps2-lej1 ~]$ sudo dmsetup info 3600a098038314d736724566a67346538
-Name: 3600a098038314d736724566a67346538
-State: ACTIVE
-Read Ahead: 256
-Tables present: LIVE
-Open count: 1
-Event number: 3
-Major, minor: 253, 12
-Number of targets: 1
-UUID: mpath-3600a098038314d736724566a67346538
-```
-
-If dmsetup cannot remove a device because a process still has it open, but lsof does not show any processes that open it, use `-f` which replaces the device with a fake that rejects all I/O.

-#linux #networking
-
----
-A function in the kernel that allows guests with internal/private IPs to access the internet by using the hosts' public IP similar to 1 to many NAT.
-
-Differences with Proxy, IP Masq, NAT:
-
-**Proxy**
-Requires special configuration on internal client side. Can be used for caching.
-
-**IP Masq**
-A form of NAT used primarily in Linux devices. Translates IP address and uses the connection tracking table and ports to map responses back to the internal connection.
-
-**NAT**
-Has different types with different use-cases.
-Static NAT: 1-1 mapping of pub/private IP. Dynamic NAT: pool of pub ips to dynamically map private IPs to based on availability.
-PAT (Port): similar to IP Masq; 1-many using ports. \ No newline at end of file

----
-The NBP is a bootloader that is obtained via the network typically via [[TFTP]]. It handles setting up an environment in which an OS can run or install. For example, it displays a boot menu and downloads the kernel images. It sets up hardware, for example the [[NIC]]s.
-
-PXE boot process:
-1. Modified [[DHCP]] request: request to include boot information (PXE boot request).
-2. Process DHCP response which includes an IP address of [[TFTP]] server and filename of [[NBP]].
-3. Download NBP over TFTP.
-4. NBP executes
- 1. Loads additional stuff over network, like kernel images.
- 2. Handles the boot menu
-5. Kernel takes over boot process and potentially downloads additional files required to complete booting.
-
-Popular NBP's:
-- PXELINUX
-- iPXE
-- GRUB2
