Course Description:
This highly intense, vendor neutral, Hands-On 5-day course provides an in depth exploration of Wide Area Networking Transport Protocols. It compares existing transport protocols with respect to design and performance considerations. This class is an in depth analysis of the design and performance consideration of building Wide Area Networks built upon TCPIP Gigabit Ethernet, SONETATM and Fibre Channel transport protocols.
Using a Real-World projects and case studies, you will evaluate an existing infrastructure, create logical designs based upon TCPIP Gigabit Ethernet, SONETATM and Fibre Channel, create a physical design based upon Ethernet Passive Optical Networking or ATM Passive Optical Networking and then optimize the design for performance.
Students Will Learn:
