COURSE OBJECTIVE:
• At the end of this course delegates will be able to • The essential elements of the TCP/IP protocol suite • Install and configure TCP/IP in a live classroom network • The roles of various devices in a TCP/IP network • IP addressing and subnetting including Variable Length Subnet Masking (VLSM) • Subnet an IP network and implement the resulting addresses • Details of ARP, IP, ICMP, TCP, and UDP – their functions and relationships • Automate address assignment and name resolution using DHCP and DDNS • IP routing and the protocols that support it, such as RIP and OSPF • How applications like FTP, HTTP, Telnet, and others work in a TCP/IP network • Functions of IPv6 and its related protocols • Functions and capabilities of multicasting, Voice over IP, and e-mail • Use of a protocol analyzer to isolate and troubleshoot network problems • Troubleshoot problems at each layer of a TCP/IP network
TARGET AUDIENCE:
Anyone who is responsible for designing, installing, configuring, and maintaining TCP/IP networks or who needs to understand TCP/IP protocol structures and functions will benefit from this course. This course also provides excellent preparation for more advanced networking training.
COURSE PREREQUISITES:
