Knowing the proper troubleshooting methodology and being familiar with the many tools available to troubleshoot network issues – both hardware and software –will make the task of finding and solving problems much easier. This course describes the methods used to manage and monitor modern networks as well as the hardware and software tools used in the troubleshooting process.
