Lab $8\mathrm{.}3$ Analysis Questions

$1.$ What characteristics and states of data does SCP protect?

$2.$ Explain how you would configure the SCP client to use SSH$2$ and AES encryption.

$3.$ What is the command to retrieve the server host key?

$4.$ The administrator for the server you want to connect to tells you that the fingerprint for this host key is $3$d:$6$c:fd:$65$:ea:ea:$33$:$77$:$34$:d$2$:$99$:$12$:$22$:$19$:$88$:dd$.$

When you connect, you get the following message:

$[$root@Linuxc$1$ root$]$# scp config.conf labuser@$192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}100\mathrm{.}202$:

The authenticity of host $192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}100\mathrm{.}202(192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}100\mathrm{.}202)$ can$$t be

established.

RSA key fingerprint is $3$d:$6$c:$8$d:$35$:cd:e$9$:$2$a:$64$:$35$:$2$d:$9$c:$81$:f$3$:b$9$:dd:b$9.$

Are you sure you want to continue connecting $($yes$/$no$)?$

$[$root@Linuxc$1$ root$]$#

$5.$ The administrator of your network would like you to maintain a web site and plans to give you FTP access to the site. Make the argument that you should use SCP instead.
