Topics Discussed:

  • Network Basics
  • OSI Model
  • TCP/IP Model
  • Network Addressing
  • Network Configuration
  • Network Interfaces
  • Network Manager
  • route Command
  • dhclient Command
  • ARP
  • Routers

Videos:

  1. Introduction to Ethernet
  2. TCP/IP Addressing
  3. Network Switching Overview
  4. Broadcast Domains and Collision Domains
  5. Static and Dynamic Routing
  6. IGP and EGP
  7. Dynamic Routing Protocols
  8. Network Segmentation

Assignment:

  1. Review the Linux Journey website’s “Networking Nomad” section.
  2. Network Configuration is how you set up your network. In Windows, much of this is done for you on the client side by the OS. The rest is configured on the switching devices deployed throughout the network, whether they be managed switches or routers.
  3. This week, we will continue to investigate router configuration, and by the end of the week we will engage in a hands-on activity where we build a multi-router network consisting of two subnets.
