Technology Training: Communications Courses: Networking: Advanced
Course Objectives:Upon completion of this course the student will be able to:
- Identify the components of an Internetwork
- Describe the functionality of internetworking components
- Articulate how the Internet Protocol is implemented in a network
- Describe how routers and routing protocols operate
Course Type:The course is taught in class with an instructor. This course is two days in length.
Prerequisite:An understanding of data communications, specifically IP networks. Networking Foundations: Level I.
Audience:Individuals that need a broad knowledge to support switched and routed networks. Individuals that need to design elegant, accurate IP networks.
Course Description:This course introduces the student to the world of internetworking. There are in-depth discussions about subnetting IP addresses, routing protocols and how quality of service is delivered in an IP network. Multi-Protocol Label Switching is an emerging standard and is covered an introductory topic. The course wraps up with a case study, which the students work in groups to discuss, design and present their solutions.
