This example demonstrates a shell script that continuously monitors network connectivity by pinging a specified host. It shows a real-time alert system where the computer verbally announces when the internet becomes available. The script uses the `ping` command with a one-second timeout and the `say` command to produce an audible "internet alert" message. It operates in an infinite `while` loop, checking every second. The concrete APIs involved are the standard Unix utilities `ping` and `say`, with no graphical or data-visualization libraries present.

Scripte um zu untersuchen ob die Übertragungsrate nach einem Ping systematisch höher ist

The visualization examines whether network transfer rates are systematically higher after a ping, based on a shell-based client-server experiment. The server repeatedly serves random 1M data blocks via `netcat`, while the client logs timing for transfers before and after each ping using the `time` command. The plot likely reveals any consistent throughput differences, with data sourced from logfile output generated by the Bash scripts. The code relies on standard Unix shell utilities (`netcat`, `dd`, `ping`, `sleep`) and randomized wait intervals between trials.

Bash stuff for fighting a weak DOS attack

This example demonstrates a set of bash one-liners for diagnosing and mitigating a weak SYN flood attack on a web server, focusing on analyzing TCP connection states and per-IP connection counts. It shows the sequence of commands used to inspect active port 80 connections via `netstat` and `awk`, increase file descriptor limits with `ulimit`, restart the web server, and identify attacking machines by tallying source IPs. The final step employs `iptables` with the `connlimit` module to reject new connections beyond a threshold, while the code also references `whois` for geolocation. No data visualization libraries are used; the output is purely text-based command-line analysis.

For showing IP Address before the login prompt on Ubuntu env. Copy the following script to /etc/network/if-up.d/ and /etc/network/if-post-down.d/ folders. And don’t forget to mark them as executables.

This example shows a Linux system displaying the Ubuntu version, hostname, and IP address before the login prompt by writing this information to the `/etc/issue` file. The script uses `cat /etc/issue.net` to copy the OS release banner, `hostname` to append the machine name, and `ip address show eth0` piped through `awk` and `cut` to extract the IPv4 address from the `eth0` interface. It is intended for placement in `/etc/network/if-up.d/` and `/etc/network/if-post-down.d/` directories, which run the script upon network interface state changes. The code relies solely on standard shell utilities and system files, with no external graphics or data-visualization libraries.

This example shows how to analyze and mitigate a SYN flood attack against a web server, where the attacker opens many TCP connections without sending data. The visualization consists of command-line output and shell scripts, not a graphical chart, and it presents the sequence of diagnostic and defensive steps. The code uses standard Unix tools like `netstat`, `awk`, `sort`, `uniq`, and `cut` to count connections per state and per source IP, as well as `whois` for IP lookup. It also demonstrates `ulimit` to raise the file descriptor limit, `iptables` with the `connlimit` module to cap per-host connections, and the `lighttpd` init script to restart the server. The approach is purely textual, showing the raw commands and their expected outputs.

Genie Job Heartbeat

This example monitors the runtime status of a Netflix Genie job by emitting an audible beep each time the job is confirmed to be running. It shows a continuous polling loop that checks the job’s state through the Genie REST API, specifically querying the `/api/v3/jobs` endpoint with a size limit of 100 results. The script uses `curl` to fetch the JSON response and `jq` to filter the job list for the target job ID and its current status, grepping for the string “RUNNING” to trigger the terminal bell via `tput bel`. The loop repeats at a user-defined interval until the job leaves the running state.

React native check internet speed

This example shows a React Native function that measures internet speed by timing a parallel fetch of a JSON API request and a file download from a fixed test URL. Using `RNFetchBlob` for the file download and native `fetch` for the API call, it calculates kilobytes per second from the elapsed time and classifies the connection as very bad, average, good, or excellent based on thresholds like 150, 550, and 2000 kB/s. The code then triggers warning messages for each category and cleans up the cached file with `RNFetchBlob.fs.unlink`.

This example demonstrates the network connectivity and packet loss between Docker containers on a custom macvlan network, as well as between containers and external hosts. It creates a macvlan network named "fritz", launches Alpine and Nginx containers, and adds a shim interface to test routing scenarios. The script uses the Docker CLI (`docker network create`, `docker run`, `docker exec`) and the `ip` command for network configuration, then runs `ping` tests to report percentage packet loss for various targets, cleaning up all resources afterward.

Node.js + Socket.io + Bash. A collaborative terminal for your browser.

This example demonstrates a collaborative terminal in the browser, where multiple users share a live bash session and see each other’s commands and output in real time. It shows a simple web page that displays the shell’s stdout and stderr as a scrolling log, while a text input lets any connected client send commands to the server. The server uses Node.js’s `child_process.spawn` to launch bash, and Socket.io’s `listen` and `broadcast` methods to relay data between the shell and all clients. The client-side `term.html` uses jQuery for DOM updates and Socket.io’s `io.Socket` for message handling, rendering each line as a `<p>` element.
