Newly upgraded and with a new extended security section, this is the essential course for anyone who needs a solid understanding of TCP/IP networks. The course describes and explains the concepts and features of TCP/IP, providing a complete introduction to the TCP/IP protocols, services and applications. Assuming no existing TCP/IP knowledge, it covers all aspects of TCP/IP, the Internet and Intranets, including security issues. Common user and system applications are explained (including FTP, Telnet, WWW, DNS, NFS, and SNMP), in addition to a detailed examination of the major protocols, message formats and addressing methods.

Attendees will construct and configure a small routed network and also participate in network intrusion. These practical exercises reinforce the topics and skills taught during the course.


Prerequisites

An understanding of networking principles and terminology is required.
