COURSE OBJECTIVE:
Course Objectives To provide the skills necessary for the delegate to design,build,test and subnet TCP/IP Networks. The delegate will also learn how to capture packets and trace and rectify faults on the network.
TARGET AUDIENCE:
Who will the Course Benefit? Users and Administrators who need to design,implement,troubleshoot and oversee TCP/IP networks. This Linux Networking course is also suitable for delegates who need an understanding of TCP/IP and are required to maintain a network.
COURSE PREREQUISITES:
Requirements There are no formal pre-requisites,although knowledge and understanding of an operating system is essential. Having LINUX/UNIX knowledge is particularly advantageous,as the course is built around TCP/IP and LINUX/UNIX.
