Training Course Summary:

To teach delegates the key concepts of TCP/IP and enable participation in a team responsible for TCP/IP networks.

To enable delegates to install, configure and troubleshoot TCP/IP systems and networks.

To enable delegates to identify strategies for the use of TCP/IP to minimise the risk from intrusion and attack and maximise performance.

What skills will the delegate gain?
This course will enable delegates to:

Define network architecture.
Identify infrastructure components.
Monitor and analyse network performance.
Design, manage and troubleshoot enterprise TCP/IP networks.
Install and configure TCP/IP on computer systems.
Define ranges of network and host addresses.
Define and test custom subnet masks.
Use DNS systems to enable host name resolution.
Identify potential security vulnerabilities.

Pre-Requisites:

i-Net Support skills (AIP).

Who Should Attend:

Network engineers, network architects, internetworking engineers, LAN/WAN administrators, systems administrators, systems managers and intranet administrators.

All staff working on projects involving the implementation of systems based on TCP/IP would benefit from this course.
