Objective
Purpose:
You learn the structure, protocols of data networks used by computers (and other end devices). You also know the principles of planning a data network.
EUR-ACE Competences:
Knowledge and Understanding
Engineering Practice
The learning objectives:
You are familiar with protocols and data transmission principles used on the Internet. You know the layers of OSI model and identifies the technologies and protocols used on each layer of the model. You can design a local area network using, switches, routers, workstations and servers. You are able to design cabling, switching topology and routing scheme to run the data network. You know the different devices used on a network (e.g. switches, routers, firewalls, wireless base stations). You can change, handle and save the configuration used in network devices. You know how local area networks interconnect to one another through wide area networks.
Content
The contents stated through the OSI model:
Layer 1
- Physical cabling (copper, fiber)
- Wireless Local Area Networks
- Basic modulations in data transfer
- Devices
Layer 2
- Ethernet switching
- Network Segmentation (VLANs)
- Loop detection (Spanning Tree)
- MAC addressing
Layer 3
- IPv4 and IPv6 addressing, subnetting
- Routing (Static, OSPF and BGP)
- DHCP, ARP
Layer 4
- TCP and UDP
Layers 5 to 7
SSH, HTTP, DNS, SMTP
In addition, best practices in network design and configuration management are handled in the course.
Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1)
Sufficient 1: The student masters the theory on network protocols sufficiently and is able to recognize some sections of existing solutions. The student can plan and implement few parts of a small-scale network infrastructure based on given requirement specification.
Satisfactory 2: The student masters the theory on network protocols satisfactorily and is able to recognize existing solutions. The student can plan and implement some parts of a small-scale network infrastructure based on given requirement specification.
Assessment criteria, good (3)
Good 3: The student masters the theory on network protocols well and is able to analyze existing solutions. The student is able to plan and implement most parts of a network infrastructure based on given requirement specification.
Very good 4: The student masters the theory on network protocols very well and is able to analyze existing solutions. The student is able to plan and implement almost all parts of a network infrastructure based on given requirement specification.
Assessment criteria, excellent (5)
Excellent 5: The student masters the theory on network protocols excellently and is able to analyze existing solutions and create new solutions. The student is able to plan and implement all parts of a large-scale network infrastructure based on given requirement specification.
Assessment criteria, approved/failed
The student masters the theory on network protocols sufficiently and is able to recognize some sections of existing solutions. The student can plan and implement few parts of a small-scale network infrastructure based on given requirement specification.
