ITS 2300 - Data Networking

Data Networking is organized along the ISO layered protocol architecture. The class starts with a discussion of the physical layer and the different transmission media. Subsequently a detailed discussion of the link and network layers provides students with an understanding of the principles of data networking, virtual circuits, packet switching, and routing. The transport layer along with a description of typical networking applications are also discussed with an emphasis on the use of these concepts in the Internet. These topics are further explored in hands-on lab exercises.
