Network Administration Course

This course teaches the fundamentals of networking, what the TCP/IP protocol stack consists of and how the different layers of the network stack influence communication on a network. You will learn how Linux can be used as a router and the basic principles of digital encryption and digital signatures used to keep email secure. As well as how to set up secure connections between different Linux machines by using SSH.

Approximately 30 hours

For the Networking courses, you would need to have two machines with Linux installed on them. Both machines should have a Network card installed. If you are using a machine that is already connected to a Local Area Network then you do not need a second machine.

After further completing the Network Administrators course, and this would include all associated exercises, labs and simulated problem labs, you would be able to work as a Junior Network Administrator.
