COURSE DESCRIPTION:
This course prepares the students for Microsoft exam 70-221 by teaching students to analyze the
business and technical requirements of an organization and then create a networking services
design that provides appropriate solution by using Windows 2000. In addition, the student will
learn how to evaluate existing designs and recommend solutions to improve the security,
availability, and performance characteristics of an existing network.
COURSE /DEPARTMENTAL OBJECTIVES
The student must be able to:
 Understand and use in a network design protocols such as TCP/IP and IPX/SPX
 Understand and use in a network design IP and IPX Routing
 Understand and use in a network design DHCP, WINS, DNS
 Understand and use in a network RAS design Dial-up, VPN and RADIUS
 Understand and use in a network design NAT and Proxy Server
COURSE /INSTITUTIONAL OBJECTIVES
This course is intended to foster student’s abilities to access and evaluate information objectively
and effectively, and to foster analytical and quantitative thinking.
