CS328 Network Addressing and Device Configuration

This course covers topics such as the lower part of the OSI layers (physical, data link, network, and transport). Both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing methods will be covered. Students will learn how to connect and configure switches and routers, troubleshoot common network problems, and design networks. Address resolution will also be presented along the protocols and processes (ICMP, ARP, DNS, DHCP etc.) Students will also learn how to build a small network using state-of-the-art equipment. Prerequisite: CS326
