TCP/IP foundation for engineers
TCP/IP training course description
Covers TCP/IP design, use, configuration, and analysis. The TCP/IP protocols are also studied to enable delegates to be able to troubleshoot TCP/IP using LAN Analysers. Practical hands on with Cisco, and Microsoft systems follow the major sessions to reinforce the theory.

Who will benefit?
System Administrators
Network Administrators
Support personnel

TCP/IP training prerequisites
None.

TCP/IP training course objectives
By the end of the course delegates will be able to:
  • Describe TCP/IP.
  • Use TCP/IP services.
  • Design TCP/IP networks.
  • Configure TCP/IP.
  • Analyse TCP/IP packets.
  • Troubleshoot TCP/IP.
Duration: 5 days
