Network basics

Master core networking concepts: OSI model, IP addressing, communication, and essential tools

Objectives

For a network to function properly, it is necessary to know the rules that govern it in order to adopt the right steps to take in case of problems. The objective of this training is to introduce you to the basics of networks in order to be able to choose the best troubleshooting approaches using the OSI model, and to provide you with the knowledge necessary to correctly set up a host in a corporate network.
