Summary

In this chapter, we talked about dedicated tools that are used for hacking into networks and network protocols, and which of them should be used in each one of the OSI reference model layers. Understanding the usage of each one of these tools will later help you to understand where to use which tool.

In the next chapters, we start to dig into specific protocols, starting from Layer 2, Wi-Fi and Ethernet, and continuing to IP, TCP/UDP, and the upper-layer protocols and applications.
