This four-day short course/CPD module introduces you to internet protocol (IP) networks and data networks in general.
It follows a bottom up approach, starting in layer 2 with coverage of ethernet and IEEE 802.11.
You'll then look at:
the essentials of IP protocols (IPv4 and IPv6) with a large emphasis on network routing, both intra and inter domain
congestion and flow control, detailing the TCP protocol and a smaller emphasis on UDP and newer congestion control protocols like RTCP and DCCP
quality-of-service, examining the fundamentals of queuing theory and the integrated and differentiated services architecture
analysis of upper layer functionality, namely session and application layer protocols and security
The course contains a lab session where the theoretical concepts are illustrated with small exercises.
