Course Outline

Explaining Network Topologies

Covers different ways networks are arranged (e.g., star, mesh, bus) and basic network types (LAN, WAN, SOHO).

Supporting Cabling and Physical Installations

Focuses on physical media like copper (twisted pair) and fiber optics, including installation and testing standards.

Configuring Interfaces and Switches

Deals with Layer 2 devices, switch configuration, and physical port management.

Configuring Network Addressing

Covers IP addressing fundamentals, including IPv4, IPv6, and subnetting.

Configuring Routing and Advanced Switching

Moves to Layer 3 devices (routers) and advanced switching concepts like VLANs and Spanning Tree Protocol (STP).

Implementing Network Services

Explains core services like DHCP, DNS, and NTP that allow networks to function.

Explaining Application Services

Focuses on services that run on the network, such as web, email, and storage services.

Supporting Network Management

Covers how to monitor, document, and maintain network health (e.g., SNMP, logging, and change management).

Explaining Network Security Concepts

Introduces foundational security terms, the CIA triad, and common types of network threats and attacks.

Applying Network Security Features

Focuses on practical defense, such as firewalls, intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS), and port security.

Supporting Network Security Design

Deals with securing the network architecture, including authentication (MFA/AAA), access controls, and zero-trust principles.

Configuring Wireless Networks

Covers Wi-Fi standards (802.11), security, and troubleshooting wireless connectivity.

Comparing Remote Access Methods

Explains how to securely connect to networks from outside, such as VPNs and remote management protocols (SSH/RDP).

Summarizing Cloud Concepts

Covers cloud service models (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS) and how cloud networking differs from traditional on-premises environments.

A.0 Network Sandbox
This is typically a hands-on lab environment where you practice configuring routers, switches, and security settings in a safe, simulated environment.

B.0 CompTIA Network+ N10-009 Practice Exams
These are designed to mimic the actual exam format (multiple-choice and performance-based questions) to help you gauge your readiness.
