General

This project includes two main components: client.py and server.py. The server script needs to be started first to open a socket and wait for client connections. Once connected, the server instructs the client to perform specified actions and gathers the resulting data.

Client

client.py

• Platform: Linux and Windows
• Description:
  • The client script communicates with the server to execute commands and send back information.
  • No user interaction is required once the script is started.

Server

server.py

• Description:
  • The server script sets up a socket to listen for client connections.
  • It instructs the client on actions to perform and gathers the resulting data.
  • The server remains running, waiting for new client connections even after a client disconnects.

Usage

Start client.py

To start the client script, use the following command:

python client.py -H <SERVER-IP> -P <SERVER-PORT> -cport <CLIENT-PORT> --cert ./cert/client-cert.pem --key ./cert/client-key.pem --ca-cert ./cert/ca-cert.pem

Start server.py

To start the server script, use the following command:

sudo python server.py -H <SERVER-IP> -P <SERVER-PORT> --cert ./Source/cert/server-cert.pem --key ./Source/cert/server-key.pem --ca-cert ./Source/cert/ca-cert.pem

Examples

To start the client script, use the following command:

python client.py -H 192.168.91.129 -P 65432 -cport 50000 --cert ./cert/client-cert.pem --key ./cert/client-key.pem --ca-cert ./cert/ca-cert.pem

Start server.py

To start the server script, use the following command:
