Training Course Outline
Course Duration:
4 Days
Training Course Description:
The Internet Protocol Suite, commonly known as TCP/IP, forms the basis
for the Internet and the next generation of telecommunications
services. It is now at the core of all modern mobile phone networks,
is used for the distribution of television services, carries
electronic mail and is at the heart of all PC networks. Understanding
how the protocols function and interact with each other is critical
for engineers and technicians who will configure and troubleshoot
computer networks, and next generation communications systems.
This course introduces the basic fundamentals of the Internet
Protocols suite using hands-on exercises to develop practical skills.
Delegates will understand the workings of the protocols and then stage
by stage build a complete Internetworking systems including all the
necessary servers to make it function. Delegates will construct a
complete service in the classroom using LANs, hubs, switchs and
routers.
On completion of this course delegates will be able to:
- Use protocol analysis techniques
for Internet protocols: IP, ARP, TCP, UDP and HTTP
- Solve duplicate IP address
problems
- Troubleshoot IP configuration
problems
- Build internets with IP routers
including configuration and testing
- Troubleshoot TCP/IP networks with
ICMP and ping
- Exploit FTP and TELNET
- Perform detailed protocol analysis
of FTP sessions
- Decode HTTP traffic
- Setup a web site
- Manage an Intranet with SNMP
Alternatives:
Delegates requiring a non Hands On introduction to datacoms and IP
should look at
Understanding IP and Datanetworking
Delivery Method:
We have a number of public scheduled course dates across the UK,
