TCP/IP: A Comprehensive Hands-On Introduction

 
Course: 367     Type: Hands-On Training     Duration: 4 Days

Quick Enroll    

You Will Learn How To
  • Configure hosts and access internetworks using TCP/IP protocols
  • Identify the role of each TCP/IP component
  • Use all major TCP/IP application services including: FTP, TELNET, HTTP and NFS
  • Avoid common internetworking problems
  • Troubleshoot TCP/IP networks using protocol analysis techniques
  • Employ popular Internet/intranet tools: FTP, Web browsers, WWW and others

Course Benefits
TCP/IP is the communications protocol suite on which the Internet and most commercial networks operate. In this course, you gain a comprehensive technical introduction to TCP/IP. Extensive hands-on exercises provide the practical experience you need to configure a host, employ TCP/IP tools, use application services and access TCP/IP-based internetworks.

Who Should Attend
Anyone working with TCP/IP protocols, or involved in developing or migrating to TCP/IP networks or accessing Internet services. Familiarity with local area network concepts and either Windows or UNIX is helpful.

Hands-On Training
Exercises throughout this course provide practical experience with TCP/IP internetworking issues and services, including:
  • Deploying protocol analysis techniques for Internet protocols: IP, ARP, TCP, UDP and HTTP
  • Solving duplicate IP address problems
  • Troubleshooting IP configuration problems
  • Building internets with IP routers: configuration and testing
  • Troubleshooting TCP/IP networks with ICMP and ping
  • Exploiting FTP and TELNET
  • Performing detailed protocol analysis of FTP sessions
  • Decoding HTTP traffic
