Description:
Learning
Outcomes
This course covers the study of the modern networking protocols, including the TCP/IP protocol
suite, addressing, IPV6, routing, security.
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will gain an understanding of the TCP/IP protocol
suite and how it is are used in data communications on the Internet. Prior to covering protocols, critical
concepts covered in CSIS2520 will be reviewed. The student will gain the following understanding: RFC’s;
the importance of standards; underlying network technologies; OSI reference model & protocol layering,
TCP/IP reference model, Internet addressing (classful and classless), subnetting, supernetting, variablelength, ARP; RARP; BOOTP; DHCP; DNS, IP; ICMP; router functionality, dynamic versus static routing,
routing tables, unicast routing (RIP, BGP, OSPF), routing algorithms (link state, distance vector), a multicast
routing algorithm (path vector), multicast routing protocols (MOSPF, DVMRP, CBT, PIM), MBONE,
IGMP, End-to-end datagram delivery, Flow control, UDP and TCP, Private Networks, Virtual Networks,
NAT (address translation), Next Generation IP (IPv6, ICMPv6), Intranet, Extranet, VPN Technology,
Privacy, IP Level Security, and IPSec

Academic Honesty: Every KSU student is responsible for upholding the provisions of the Student
Code of Conduct, as published in the Undergraduate and Graduate Catalogs. Section II of the Student
Code of Conduct addresses the University's policy on academic honesty, including provisions regarding
plagiarism and cheating, unauthorized access to University materials, misrepresentation/falsification of
University records or academic work, malicious removal, retention, or destruction of library materials,
malicious/intentional misuse of computer facilities and/or services, and misuse of student identification
cards. Incidents of alleged academic misconduct will be handled through the established procedures of
the University Judiciary Program, which includes either an "informal" resolution by a faculty member,
resulting in a grade adjustment, or a formal hearing procedure, which may subject a student to the Code
of Conduct's minimum one semester suspension requirement.
Students are encouraged to study together and to work together on lab assignments as per the
instructor’s specifications for each assignment; however, the provisions of the STUDENT CONDUCT
REGULATIONS, II. Academic Honesty, KSU Undergraduate Catalog will be strictly enforced in this class.
Disability policy. Kennesaw State University provides program accessibility and reasonable
accommodations for persons identified as disabled under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of
1973 or the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. A number of services are available to help
disabled students with their academic work. In order to make arrangements for special services,
students must visit the Office of Disabled Student Support Services (770-423-6443) and arrange
an individual assistance plan. In some cases, certification of disability is required. It is the
student’s responsibility to take care of this at the beginning of the semester.
