Course Overview

This is the first course in a two-part series based on Oracle8 Network Administration. This course introduces participants to the trends and problems associated with business networking and presents the various solutions required to address these problems. This series explains in detail the architecture of Net8 and describes the steps in which connections are established between peers. Participants will learn how to implement a basic connection between a client and a server node using various naming methods. Participants will also configure a Names server and Connection Manager. The different methods used to determine network problems and the security risks are also presented. Utilities such as logging, training, and Trace Assistant will be covered. Finally, the security solutions of the Advanced Networking Option (ANO) such as encryption and check summing are explained in detail, along with various other security solutions will be covered in this series.

Learn To:

• Identify network trends, networking problems, and solutions for these problems.
• Identify tasks performed by the Net8 architectural layers
• Identify the issues related to the server-side and client-side configuration for client-server connections.
• Configure the listener and the client for making a connection.
• Identify the issues related to network security during data transmission and the network security features in the Advanced Networking Option (ANO).
• Identify the basic concepts related to the configuration of encryption, checksumming and authentication.
