The TCP/IP Fundamentals Workshop provides you with a comprehensive working understanding of TCP/IP and the Internet Protocol suite. This course discusses issues relating to hardware and software configuration, network terminology, network performance, problem determination and resolution, application programming, network management and security. This seminar provides a "big picture" overview of TCP/IP and many of the telecommunications and data communications architectures and protocols within compliance. Providing a hands-on experience enables students to configure TCP/IP and solve real TCP/IP internetworking problems that arise while creating an intranetwork using hubs, bridges, and routers.

Who Should Attend
TCP/IP users, programmers, network and system administrators, engineers and managers who need a thorough understanding of TCP/IP, project managers and project leaders involved in the design and implementation of TCP/IP networks, client/server applications or distributed processing applications who need to understand the fundamentals of TCP/IP networks. Client/server and distributed processing programmers who need to understand the use of TCP/IP in their applications. 

Prerequisites: Basic understanding of computers.  An understanding of computer numbering systems (binary and hex) is helpful.
