COURSE INFORMATION OUTLINE

 

COURSE NO. CSN 206  TITLE  Network Segmentation

CREDIT HOURS  3    CONTACT HOURS  100

 

FULL CATALOG DESCRIPTION:

This course will introduce students to several of the technologies that underlie the segmentation of larger corporate local area networks through the use of routers, bridges, and switching technologies. Utilizing topical lectures, hands-on labs and other educational resources, students will gain an understanding of the goals for network segmentation, as well as the technologies utilized.
Prerequisites: CSN 205..

COURSE OBJECTIVES / STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES:

 

At the conclusion of this course, students will be able to demonstrate each of the following skills through computer projects or tests:

 

1.                   Identify Classless Routing, VLSM, RIP and Version 2 as demonstrated per 85% competence on a test and a lab.

2.                   Identify routing protocols OSPF and EIGRP as demonstrated per 85% competences on a test and a lab.

3.                   Identify routing protocols OSPF and EIGRP as demonstrated per 85% competences on a test and a lab.

4.                   Identify switching concepts and configurations as demonstrated per 85% competence on a test and a lab.

5.                   Identify spanning tree protocols as demonstrated per 85% competence on a test and a lab.

6.                   Identify virtual lans and trunking protocols as demonstrated per 85% competence on a test and a lab.
