Name Any Three Client Applications To Connect With FTP Server

CGI (Common Gateway Interface) and SSI (Server Side Includes) are two mechanisms for delivering dynamic content on web servers. CGI allows execution of programs on the web server, whose output together with static pages delivers dynamic content to users. SSI works by parsing server documents for special tags that trigger inclusion of content from other files or output of scripts during page delivery.

i. Name any three client applications to connect with ftp server.

Several clients out there are free or for purchase. These include FileZilla, Smart FTP, WinSCP, or
DirectFTP. Because FileZilla is free software and many organizations use it, we'll use it for our
connection examples.

i. Define Telnet.
Telnet is a network protocol used to virtually access a computer and to
provide a two-way, collaborative and text-based communication channel
between two machines.

Telnet (TN) is a networking protocol and software program used to access remote computers
and terminals over the Internet or a TCP/IP computer network. Telnet was conceived in 1969
and standardized as one of the first Internet standards by the Internet Engineering Task Force
(IETF).

Telnet, developed in 1969, is a protocol that provides a command line interface for
communication with a remote device or server, sometimes employed for remote management
but also for initial device setup like network hardware. Telnet stands for Teletype Network, but it
can also be used as a verb; 'to telnet' is to establish a connection using the Telnet protocol.

i. Define Http server and Http client.

An HTTP server serves data to clients using


the HTTP protocol. It is also known as a web
server.

The first http server was called CERN


HTTPD, and it was written in 1990 by Tim
Berners-Lee for the NeXTSTEP platform.
Four years later, Berners-Lee initiated the
creation of the World Wide Web
Consortium (W3C) to regulate the
development of HTTP, HTML, and other
technologies related to the World Wide
Web.
The software that services HTTP requests,
which is the protocol of the Web. The term
may refer only to the HTTP services in the
Web server, or the term can be used as a
synonym for "Web server." See Web
server and HTTP.

Client
The HTTP client sends a request to the server in the form of a request method, URI,
and protocol version, followed by a MIME-like message containing request modifiers,
client information, and possible body content over a TCP/IP connection.
Server
The HTTP server responds with a status line, including the message's protocol version
and a success or error code, followed by a MIME-like message containing server
information, entity meta information, and possible entity-body content.

i. Difference between http and https.

Differences between HTTP and HTTPS


 In HTTP, URL begins with “http://” whereas URL starts with “https://”
 HTTP uses port number 80 for communication and HTTPS uses 443
 HTTP is considered to be unsecure and HTTPS is secure
 HTTP Works at Application Layer and HTTPS works at Transport Layer
 In HTTP, Encryption is absent and Encryption is present in HTTPS
 HTTP does not require any certificates and HTTPS needs SSL Certificates

Difference Between HTTP and HTTPS

i. Define virtual hosting and Alias.


virtual hosting
On the Internet, virtual hosting is the provision of Web server hosting services
so that a company (or individual)...

Virtual hosting is a method for hosting multiple domain names (with separate handling of
each name) on a single server (or pool of servers).

Virtual hosting is the act of using a remote hosting service provider to host websites,
data, applications and/or services. Virtual hosting enables a myriad of IT services and
solutions that can be deployed, hosted and executed from a remote server or computing
facility, where the backend infrastructure is completely managed by the provider.
Virtual hosting is also known as Web hosting.

An alias is the DNS host name and port number that a client uses to form the URL request for
a web application resource
