Installation

To get started with the Networking Laboratory repository, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/dhwanish-3/Networking_Laboratory.git

2. Change into the project directory:

cd Networking_Laboratory

3. Compile and run server and client programs:
   • Manually

   cd <foldername>
   gcc -o <server-object-name> <server-name>
   gcc -o <client-object-name> <client-name>
   ./<server-object-name>
   ./<client-object-name> <server-ip-address>
   

   • Using Makefile

   cd <foldername>
   make
   ./<server-object-name>
   ./<client-object-name> <server-ip-address>
   

   • Using shell script files run_server and run_client
   1. save the server file you want to run

   ./run_server.sh <port number if required>
   

   2. save the client file you want to run

   ./run_client.sh <port number if required>
   

   IP address will be taken using hostname -I cmd in the script file so no need to give as argument
