Overview/Description
Optimize your Unix network services! Network services are the system operations and protocols that govern the interaction of the Unix OS with network devices, computers and the internet. They are generally handled by daemons, which are background programs, accessed through the pkg command, and operate at specific system run levels. During this course, you will learn how to configure the IPV 4 and IPV 6 settings that route internet traffic, and install and configure the following servers: the DNS server, a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), and the Apache web server.
