Cybersecurity policies often require detailed network configuration changes and additions. Technicians must be proficient with the configuration and management of various TCP/IP protocols.
In this course, I will start by discussing the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model, network switching, and network access control. Next, I'll discuss the TCP/IP protocol suite as well as IPv4 and IPv6 addressing. I will then discuss network routing, dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP), domain name system (DNS) and Wi-Fi authentication methods.
