LINX Accredited Internet Technician I


LINX training course description An intensive hands-on IP and networking foundation leading to LINX Accredited Internet Technician stage 1 focusing on LANS, WANS, switching and basic TCP/IP. Hands on sessions are used to reinforce the theory rather than teach specific manufacturer equipment. Who will benefit? Network engineers. LINX training course prerequisites None. LINX training course objectives By the end of the course delegates will be able to: Correctly cable and connect network devices. Configure switches. Use ping, traceroute and other tools to diagnose faults on a network. Analyse TCP and IP packets using an analyser. Use telnet and other utilities.
