5 Days
On completion of the course attendees will understand how to integrate the Micrium TCP/IP protocol stack library into their applications. They will also understand the main techniques for configuring and troubleshooting TCP/IP networks in general and networks containing embedded systems in particular. They will also be able to develop sockets based client - server applications ( both. Suitable for: This course is aimed at experienced C programmers who are relatively new to networking and network programming, but have a basic understanding of computer networking and the internet.
Reviews
Course programme
It is a 5 days hands on course that will cover network configuration and troubleshooting ( using e.g. the Wireshark protocol analyser ), TCP/IP protocol stack installation as well as sockets programming and TCP/UDP application level programming.
This is a taught course with labs, with a split of about 60% teaching and 40% labs.
Course Benefits
On completion of the course attendees will understand how to integrate the Micrium TCP/IP protocol stack library into their applications. They will also understand the main techniques for configuring and troubleshooting TCP/IP networks in general and networks containing embedded systems in particular. They will also be able to develop sockets based client - server applications ( both TCP and UDP ) and be able to develop applications that make use of protocols such as HTTP, FTP, SMTP and SNMP.
