Course Outline

Learning Objectives:

  • Explain the concepts of encapsulation, de-encapsulation, and modularity within the TCP/IP protocol stack.
  • Identify, describe, and interpret the various fields and flags found in the IP header.
  • Outline and clarify IP address Classes A, B, and C.
  • Apply subnet masks to determine the network segment of an IP address.
  • Distinguish between classful and classless IP addressing schemes.
  • Describe the functionality of IP routers and the application of both static and dynamic routing.
  • Compare and contrast distance-vector (RIP) and link-state (OSPF) routing protocols.
  • Elaborate on IP subnetworking.
  • Explain the principles of supernetting, VLSM, and CIDR.
  • Discuss ICMP and utilise ping and traceroute for network connectivity diagnostics.
  • Describe the role of DHCP in managing dynamic IP address assignment.
  • Utilise ARP to map IP addresses to corresponding MAC addresses.
  • Explain the function of DNS within TCP/IP network environments.
  • Identify, describe, and interpret the fields and flags in TCP and UDP headers.
