Covered topics are: Networking Fundamentals, Fundamental Network
Characteristics, Types and Sizes of Networks, Network Performance Issues and
Concepts, Network Standards and Standards Organizations, Data Representation and
the Mathematics of Computing, The Open System Interconnection (OSI) Reference
Model, TCP/IP Protocol Suite and Architecture, TCP/IP Network Interface /
Internet Layer Connection Protocols, TCP/IP IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol
(ND), TCP/IP Routing Protocols (Gateway Protocols), TCP/IP Transport Layer
Protocols, TCP/IP Application Layer Protocols, Services and Applications,
Network File and Resource Sharing Protocols and the TCP/IP Network File System,
TCP/IP Network Configuration and Management Protocols (BOOTP, DHCP, SNMP and
RMON), TCP/IP Key Applications and Application Protocols.
