Course Outline
1. Introduction to Networks (ITN)
- Foundational Networking Principles: Overview of network architectures, essential components, the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) reference model, and the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) stack.
- Protocol Mechanisms and Data Flow: Data encapsulation processes, Ethernet standards and Local Area Networks (LANs), as well as IP addressing schemes and subnetting methodologies.
- Network Access Management: Core switching principles, Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs), and inter-VLAN routing techniques.
- IP Path Determination: Fundamental routing concepts, static routing configurations, and dynamic routing protocols such as the Routing Information Protocol (RIP).
- IP Service Delivery: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Network Address Translation (NAT) implementations.
- Core Security Protocols: Foundational security principles and the application of Access Control Lists (ACLs).
- Performance and Monitoring: Wireless network infrastructure, along with strategies for network monitoring and troubleshooting.
2. Switching, Routing, and Wireless Essentials
- Switching Operations: Basic switch configuration, VLAN management and trunking, Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), and EtherChannel aggregation.
- Routing Operations: Router setup, routing table management, inter-VLAN routing, and Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) in single-area configurations.
- Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs): Wireless architecture standards, security protocols, WLAN configuration, and diagnostic procedures for wireless environments.
- Infrastructure Security: Switch hardening, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) snooping, Port security features, and router protection measures.
- Supporting IP Services: System logging (Syslog), Network Time Protocol (NTP), and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
3. Enterprise Networking, Security, and Automation
- Advanced Addressing Schemes: IPv4 and IPv6 addressing structures, including Variable Length Subnet Masking (VLSM) and advanced subnetting techniques.
- Advanced Routing Protocols: Multi-area Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), and Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) fundamentals.
- Enterprise Security Controls: Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) with Internet Protocol Security (IPsec), firewall architecture, and Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) using RADIUS and TACACS+.
- Network Governance: Quality of Service (QoS) principles, network automation and programmability, and Software-Defined Networking (SDN) with controller-based management.
- Wide Area Network (WAN) Technologies: Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS), Metro Ethernet, and broadband connectivity solutions.
