         NEXASHIELD PROTOCOL TESTING GUIDE
=========================================================

IMPORTANT PREREQUISITE:
To capture all network traffic accurately (especially ICMP and low-level system processes),
you must run NexaShield with Administrator privileges (Windows) or as Root (sudo on Mac/Linux).

---------------------------------------------------------
1. Testing HTTP (Port 80 / 8080)
---------------------------------------------------------
How to trigger:
Open your web browser and navigate to a website that does not use SSL (HTTPS).
Example: http://neverssl.com

What to look for:
In the NexaShield Network tab, look for connections from your browser (e.g., chrome.exe) labeled as "HTTP (TCP)".

---------------------------------------------------------
2. Testing HTTPS (Port 443 / 8443)
---------------------------------------------------------
How to trigger:
Open your web browser and navigate to any secure website.
Example: https://www.google.com or https://github.com

What to look for:
Look for connections from your browser labeled as "HTTPS (TCP)".

---------------------------------------------------------
3. Testing DNS (Port 53)
---------------------------------------------------------
How to trigger:
Open your Command Prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Mac/Linux) and force a domain name resolution:
Command: nslookup example.com

What to look for:
You will briefly see a "DNS (UDP)" or "DNS (TCP)" connection appear in the table.

---------------------------------------------------------
4. Testing ICMP (Ping / Raw Sockets)
---------------------------------------------------------
How to trigger:
Open your Command Prompt or Terminal and send a continuous ping to a public server.
Windows Command: ping -t 8.8.8.8
Mac/Linux Command: ping 8.8.8.8

What to look for:
Select "ICMP" from the Protocol dropdown filter in NexaShield. You should see the ping process listed.

---------------------------------------------------------
5. Testing POP3 (Port 110 / 995)
---------------------------------------------------------
How to trigger:
If you don't have an email client to hit "Receive", you can simulate a POP3 connection using Python.
Open a new terminal and run:
python -c "import socket; s=socket.socket(); s.connect(('pop.gmail.com', 995)); print('Connected!'); input('Press Enter to close...')"

What to look for:
While the terminal says "Connected!", look in NexaShield for your Python process labeled as "POP3 (TCP)".

---------------------------------------------------------
6. Testing SMTP (Port 25 / 465 / 587)
---------------------------------------------------------
How to trigger:
Similar to POP3, you can simulate an outgoing email server connection using Python.
Open a new terminal and run:
python -c "import socket; s=socket.socket(); s.connect(('smtp.gmail.com', 587)); print('Connected!'); input('Press Enter to close...')"

What to look for:
While the terminal says "Connected!", look in NexaShield for your Python process labeled as "SMTP (TCP)".
