| Aim | Data communications and networking is a subject that involves many concepts, protocols, and technologies in today's modern computer networks. This course aims to teach student the principles and protocols of computer networks in a structured manner with hands-on Ethereal lab applications, which are organized around the "top down layers" of a network architecture. The course also aims to show relationships between OSI layers and how each layer addresses a subset of requirements of a computer networks. |
| Course Content | This course contains; Computer Networks and Internet,Application Layer -Part 1 (Principles, The Web and HTTP, FTP, SMTP),Application Layer -Part 2 (DNS, P2P, Socket Programming with TCP and UDP),Ethereal Lab 1: Application Layer,Transport Layer- Part 1 (Services, Multiplexing-Demultiplexing, UDP),Transport Layer- Part 2 (Reliable Data Transfer, TCP, Congestion Control) ,Ethereal Lab 2: Transport Layer,Midterm,Network Layer-Part 1 (VC-Datagram Networks, Router, Teh Internet Protocol (IP)),Network Layer-Part 2 (Routing Algorithms,RIP,OSPF,BGP,Broadcast-Multicast Routing),Ethereal Lab 3: Network Layer,Link Layer -Part 1(Error Detection-Correction, Multiple Access, Link-Layer Addressing),Link Layer -Part 2 (Ethernet, Link Layer Switches, PPP, ATM, MPLS),Wireless and Mobile Networks(Wireless Links, 802.11 WLAN, Overview of Cellular Standards). |
