Computer Networks

The Computer Networks module exposes students to the underlying workings of traditional networking ranging from a small office network to the internet.
Students will understand the basic network types and topologies and they will go through the process of creating packets of data, transmitting them, and routing them across the network.
Students will be introduced to the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Model, TCP/IP protocol, Network Operations (Ops) policies, plans and procedures, business continuity, high availability, disaster recovery, network optimization and security.
