    Network administration involves many aspects other than building, confi guring, and managing networks. The ability to quickly diagnose and solve network problems is essential to any functional network as is the ability to employ the proper diagnostic tools to predict possible problem areas before network interruptions can disrupt critical transactions. As organizational dependency on network data transactions continues to grow, networks have expanded to meet this need. The complexity of networks tends to grow exponentially with the size of the networks. The ability to cope with this complexity requires keen problem-solving skills as well as the ability to utilize available tools. This course is designed to teach problem-solving skills, the employment of the available tools, and a teamwork (as well as an individual) approach to solving problems in complex networks. (4050-413 and 4050-515; co-requisite: 4050-519 lab) Class 3, Lab 2, Credit 4

    This course will provide students with an introduction to the Perl programming language, with examples and problems drawn from the system administration arena. After covering the essentials of the language, students will be taught how to create Perl Objects, and install modules for use on a computing system. Application areas for Perl scripts will include fi le system walking programs, user account creation and manipulation, and the processing of log fi les. (A two-course object oriented programming sequence) Class 5, Credit 4
  • 5.00 Credits

    Programming techniques for sending information over a network will be explored. All programming will be above the transport layer, employing one of the ICMP, UDP, or TCP protocols. Multi-threaded servers will be examined. Principles of good protocol design will be studied. In addition, students will be required to program and to establish standard protocols. (4050-515 and 4050-318 or 4002-219 or equivalent) Class 5, Credit 4
  • 2.00 Credits

    This course is designed to provide the student with an understanding of the principles and concepts of wireless data network security. Students will perform a series of laboratory experiments in order to explore various mechanisms for securing wireless data networks including physical layer mechanisms, fi lters, applications and encryption. Students will engage in attack/ defend scenarios to test their deployments against other teams. (4050-413) Class 3, Lab 2, Credit 4
  • 4.00 Credits

    Students taking this course will gain experience on both traditional and next generation Internet Protocol (IP) telephony systems. Students will explore the issues associated with migrating to newer systems and implement their own IP-based data networks. These networks will be designed to carry real-time data, including IP telephony. (4050-515) Class 4, Credit 4
  • 4.00 Credits

    This capstone course will examine the design and performance of networks. Students will learn to design networks based on identifi ed needs and analyze the performance of that network. The designs include site, campus, and enterprise. WAN technologies will be combined with LAN technologies in the design of enterprise networks. Students will learn to assess the business goals and their application to the network goals. Students will learn to evaluate the security goals of the network and to integrate these goals in the design. (4050-421, 4002-455, 4050-515, 4050-516) Class 4, Credit 4
  • 2.00 Credits

    Advanced Routing and Switching is a course in advanced networking topics. Technologies available to large enterprises to build a large intranet infrastructure are explored in depth. The topology of the Internet is discussed, along with current and emerging technologies for the implementation of that backbone. Topics include: core routers and routing protocols, queuing, multicast routing and the MBONE, variable length subnet masking, IP address depletion and network address translation, enterprise wide backbone routers, and emerging protocols. (4050-515) Class 3, Lab 2, Credit 4
  • 2.00 Credits

    This course will discuss the changing nature of communication, the requirements of emerging applications, the effect on network design and the security concerns associated with them. The focus is on the evolution of multimedia services (such as voice and video) and Internetworking technologies in supporting convergence. While examining upcoming technologies and future trends that will impact the direction of IP and broadband technology development, of primary concern will be standards, protocols, deployment, and emerging technologies involved in the Voice over IP and Video over IP systems. (4050-530; corequisite 4050-550 lab) Class 3, Lab 2, Credit 4
  • 2.00 Credits

    This course provides proposes to increase the understanding of the student in the areas of liability, exposure, opportunity, ability and function various weaknesses and forms of attack and the detection and defense of the same. The issues and facilities available to both the intruder and administrator will be examined and evaluated with appropriate laboratory exercises to illustrate their effect.
