TC3018 : IP Networks for the Small and Medium Corporation
Academic department: Computer Science
C - L - U: 3 - 0 - 8
Programs:
Prerequisites: ( TC2002 )
Equivalences: None.
Course intention within the general study plan context:
This is a course of advance level in the study of network interconnection technologies,
where the student will be able to solve and document study cases about LAN networks
and WAN networks less than 100 nodes scenarios. Additionally, it’s expected that the
student will be able to obtain a commercial certification
Course objective:
At the end of this course, the student will be able to evaluate and select the routing
protocols best fitted for the design of scalable business networks, design and operate
efficiently a LAN business network, and to establish basic WAN links for the connection
with remote sites through an internet provider.
To achieve the last, the next themes are considered: routing protocols without class like
OSPF and EIGRP, virtual LAN networks, scalable IP networks using VLSM, CDIR and
NAT, and WAN technologies like ISDN and Frame Relay.
