| Lesson Descriptions
| Lesson 1: Networking a Structured Approach
| This lesson introduces the frameworks used to understand network
| communications. The OSI and DoD models are explained, followed by
| a deep dive into each layer of the OSI model.
| Lesson 2: Network Components
| Networks begin with switches and routers, but are quickly enhanced
| with the use of wireless networking, load distribution, security
| devices, and many more components. We discuss foundational
| concepts behind the most common network components.
| Lesson 3: Network Topologies
| Whether you're involved with a fresh new greenfield deployment
| or you'll be coming into an existing infrastructure brownfield,
| you will need to understand the advantages and disadvantages of
| common network designs. This lesson teaches both physical wiring
| topologies as well as logical and on-demand networks.
| Lesson 4: Network Services
| Most of us rely upon networks to access remote services. In this
| lesson, we explore many common communication protocols and
| application protocols. Beginning with the raw components of
| TCP/IP, we journey into the communications occurring at higher
| levels of the OSI model.
| Lesson 5: WAN Technologies
| The Wide Area Network is ultimately responsible for providing long
| distance communications. In this module, we explore technologies
| leveraged by service providers, which enable wide area
| connectivity.
| Lesson 6: Network Cabling and Connectors
| If it's not a wireless connection, we need to have the proper
| cabling and adapter. In Lesson 6, we explore the advantages and
| disadvantages of cabling types and discuss the types of
| connections and tools required for cabling.
| Lesson 7: Ethernet Switch Operations
| Switching is one of the most important topics we cover. In this
| section, we discuss traditional switching operations including
| loop prevention mechanisms. After building a basic foundation, we
| explore advanced tuning options that you might be able to perform
| to enhance the speed of your network.
| Lesson 8: Wireless LAN
| Wireless networking has become ubiquitous in the current age.
| Wireless devices are used to extend the edge to user devices as
| well as perform bridging between separate physical locations.
| Lesson 8 discusses wireless communication standards, antenna
| types, security implementations, and more.
| Lesson 9: Network Addressing
| An IP address doesn't mean much without a subnet mask. In this
| lesson, we discover the importance of the subnet mask. After
| gaining an understanding of how subnet masks function, we discuss
| how to create custom subnets to enhance security, improve
| performance, and aid in administrative needs.
| Lesson 10: IP Version 6 Networks
| IPv6 was created to be the successor of IPv4. Over the last 20
| years, it has slowly become more prevalent in our lives, most
| commonly experienced today in cellular networks. In this lesson,
| you learn how IPv6 addressing works, how the protocol header is a
| bit different than in IPv4, and the new roles ICMPv6 will serve.
| Microsoft Windows has built-in support for IPv6 tunneling. We
| discuss tunneling implementations as well as IPv6 security.
| Lesson 11: IP Routing
| Packets are forwarded based on their destination IP addresses.
| This forwarding, called routing, is made possible through both
| static and dynamic information. Lesson 11 explores Interior
| Gateway Protocols (IGP), as well as Exterior Gateway Protocols
| (EGP). Additionally, we begin with a discussion on gateway
| redundancy.
| Lesson 12: Unified Communications Fundamentals
| Today, more than ever, IP networks are being used for real-time
| collaboration. Modern networks are expected to provide a quality
| user experience in regards to voice and video applications. In
| this lesson, we discuss the control mechanisms available to
| administrators for optimizing network performance.
| Lesson 13: Virtualization Fundamentals
| The point of demarcation as a network administrator has
| historically been a port to which the server attaches. However,
| with the rapid adoption of virtualization networks, engineers are
| now required to understand what happens to network within a
| virtualized environment. We begin by taking a look at
| virtualization technologies,and then dive into the networking
| aspects of virtualized environments.
| Lesson 14: Network Security
| With profit-driven cyber attacks on the rise, it's imperative that
| network engineers understand security controls that can be used to
| protect network infrastructure. This lesson introduces offensive
| techniques used by attackers, as well as defensive countermeasures
| that can be deployed by administrators. Additionally, we discuss
| the advantages of centralized authentication, as well the
| protocols and technologies that make it possible.
| Lesson 15: Network Maintenance
| Building upon the theory introduced in previous lessons, Lesson 15
| focuses on protocols, tasks, and best practices that network
| administrators are likely to leverage on a typical day. From
| planning to administering to the logging that happens continuously
| thereafter, the topics in this lesson should serve you for many
| years to come.
| Lesson 16: Network Troubleshooting
| If our network is designed with resiliency and performance in
| mind, we should not have problems. However, sometimes we do, and
| sometimes other people blame the network when an application is to
| blame. Lesson 16 focuses on tools that can be used in common
| operating systems to troubleshoot network issues. Additionally we
| discuss error codes and interface counters, and then learn some of
| the telltale signs of network misconfiguration.
| Lesson 17: Test Preparation
| This final lesson includes study tips, test preparation
| suggestions, some of my exam experiences, and recommendations for
| what's next after the exam.
