Networking

Prepares you for CompTIA Network+ (N10-009)

How networks are designed, built, run, secured and fixed, from the OSI model and subnetting to routing, wireless and the cloud.

By the end you’ll have made: A simulated office network with VLANs, routing, DHCP and DNS that you designed and troubleshot
