Understand all the IT Networking Fundamentals and learn how the computer network functions

It is a specialized course but with over several lessons, you are will not find a course similar to this!

This course serves as a general introduction for students to acquire a foundation in IT Networking Fundamentals including core areas that function within a given computer network. The course provides an introduction to the hardware, software, terminology, components, design, and connections of a network, as well as the network typologies and protocols for WANs and LANs.

Upon completion of this course, with appropriate study, the student will have learned to:

Identify the components of a network and determine the type of network design most appropriate for a given site.
Identify the different media used in network communications, distinguish among them, and determine how to use them to connect servers and clients in a network.
Differentiate among networking standards, protocols, and access methods and determine which is most appropriate for a given network.
Recognize the primary network architectures, identify their major characteristics, and determine which is most appropriate for a proposed network.
Identify the primary functions of network operating systems and distinguish between a centralized computing environment and a client/server environment.
Determine how to implement and support the major networking components, including the server, operating system, and clients.
Propose a system for adequately securing data on a given network and protecting the system’s components.
Distinguish between LANs and wide-area networks (WANs) and identify the components used to expand a LAN into a WAN.
Understand various hardware available and used in a network
Concept of TCP/IP and protocols
