  • Understanding the concepts and architecture of computer networks and the TCP/IP protocol family
  • Knowing and understanding how TCP/IP networks work on the basis of real networks
  • Configuring and troubleshooting TCP/IP networks independently
Content

TCP/IP has long been the de facto protocol standard for computer networks and the basis of the Internet. Sound knowledge of TCP/IP is a basic requirement in IT today.
This basic course imparts sound basic knowledge of the concepts, architecture and functioning of computer networks with TCP/IP. The focus of this very practical course consists of many exercises to understand TCP/IP using modern devices, systems, methods and tools.

Topics:

  • Concepts and architecture of computer networks.
  • Layer architecture of the TCP/IP stack.
  • Analysing and understanding TCP/IP installations using graphical and command line tools.
  • Ethernet and protocols: ARP, IP, DHCP
  • TCP and UDP
  • Routing
  • Name resolution with DNS
  • Configuring and troubleshooting TCP/IP networks

For the numerous exercises, each participant has their own virtual training environment with several VMs in our data centre. Windows 10, Windows Server 2019, Wireshark for analysing network traffic and numerous other built-in tools and those available on the Internet are used.

Methodology & didactics

The course is explicitly structured in a practice-oriented way. Concepts and theory are derived from practical exercises.

Target audience

This course is aimed at IT system administrators and IT support staff from all sectors.
