TCP/IP foundation for engineers
A 5 day Hands on training course
Description Key outcomes
An intensive hands on IP foundation. The course By the end of the course delegates will be able to:
focuses on all parts of TCP/IP including layers 4 to 7 on
Use ping, traceroute and other tools to diagnose
end stations as well as layer 3 on routers. The TCP/IP
faults on a network.
protocols are also studied to enable delegates to be
able to troubleshoot TCP/IP using Wireshark. Configure IP on PCs and routers.
Hands on sessions are used to reinforce the theory
Plan IP addresses and subnets.
rather than teach specific manufacturer equipment.
Analyse IP and TCP packets using Wireshark.
An optional multiple choice exam, leading to the
LAIT I certification, is included at the end of the Troubleshoot TCP/IP.
