Lesson 3 discusses network more...

Network Types The first lesson in this module provides a more in depth discussion of LAN technologies. First it defines how the Data Link Layer is divided into the Media Access Control (MAC) and Logical Link Control (LLC) sublayers. The International Electrical and Electronic Engineera s (IEEE) specifications for Ethernet Token and FDDI are briefly reviewed. The rest of the lesson is dedicated to Ethernet more...

Network Media This module delves into cable and wireless media types. Lesson 1 highlights the important points about unshielded twisted pair (UTP) and shielded twisted pair (STP) as well as the two types of coax cooper cable. It also discusses the properties of multimode and singlemode fiber optic cable. Then it reviews the various wireless options and details the IEEE 802.11 group of wireless transmission more...

Switching Fundamentals This module addresses switching fundamentals. Lesson 1 discusses LAN transmissions and how they share the available network bandwidth. The lesson introduces the essential terms collision domain and broadcast domain which describe network access and device functionality. Bridging and switching is discussed in Lesson 2. Although different in how they operate both devices learn and store MAC address more...

IP Protocol Suite Module 5 focuses on the IP Protocol Suite (commonly referred to as TCP/IP). Lesson 1 provides an overview of Network Layer protocols including the Internet Protocol (IP) Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP) and Internetwork Message Control Protocol (ICMP). Lesson 2 identifies the Transport Layer components: Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) for more...

IP Addressing, Subnetting, and Routing This module covers IP addressing subnetting and routing. The table used during the decimal to binary conversion process is also helpful for defining classes of addresses and performing the steps necessary for subnetting. Lesson 1 provides a detailed look at IP address classes A B C and D. Also included in this lesson are updates about IPv6 a newer 128-bit IP addressing scheme and Classless more...

WAN Technologies This module reviews WAN technologies commonly found in small to medium-size networks. Lesson 1 discusses common telecommunications and WAN terminology. Lesson 2 identifies the characteristics of High-Level Data Link Control Protocol (HDLC) Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) frame relay xDSL Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) and SONET. Lesson 3 discussed modem more...

Managing the Network Environment This module describes how to manage a network with a number of different components. Lesson 1 discusses the Cisco proprietary protocol used to identify neighboring devices. Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) is topology and protocol independent and is an effective way to document network infrastructures. Lesson 2 highlights Telnet which is used to provide remote console connections to a network more...
