Overview/Description
Understanding the methods that computers and network devices use to talk to one another is essential knowledge for IT technicians to have in order to configure and troubleshoot networked environments. This course examines TCP/IP, connectivity and networking issues, connection types, router and firewall configurations, and small office or home office (SOHO) configurations. It also explores troubleshooting network issues using a series of command line tools such as NET, PING, and TRACERT. This course is part of the preparation for the CompTIA A+ 220-702 Practical Application exam which is half of the requirement necessary to acquire the CompTIA A+ certification.
