Course Outline

Learning Objectives:

  • Explain the concepts of encapsulation, de-encapsulation, and modularity within the TCP/IP protocol stack.
  • Identify and interpret the specific fields and flags present in the IP header.
  • Characterize and distinguish between IP address classes A, B, and C.
  • Apply subnet masks to determine the network portion of an IP address.
  • Articulate the distinctions between classful and classless IP addressing schemes.
  • Explain the function of IP routers and the mechanisms of static versus dynamic routing.
  • Compare and contrast distance vector (RIP) and link-state (OSPF) routing protocols.
  • Describe the principles and practices of IP subnetworking.
  • Explain the concepts of supernetting, VLSM, and CIDR.
  • Utilize ICMP, ping, and traceroute as essential tools for assessing network connectivity.
  • Describe the role of DHCP in managing dynamic IP addressing.
  • Explain how ARP is used to map IP addresses to MAC addresses.
  • Describe the function and utility of DNS within TCP/IP networks.
  • Identify and explain the fields and flags in both TCP and UDP headers.
  • Explain how TCP provides end-to-end reliability over an inherently unreliable IP network.
  • Describe the mechanisms of congestion avoidance within TCP/IP networks.
  • Explain the protocols and processes involved in Transport Layer Security (TLS).
