Understanding IP
and Datanetworking
Course Duration: 2 days
Training Course Description:
This course provides a thorough introduction to IP and Data
Networking for non technical staff who need to appreciate and manage
the technology but will not be implementing it hands-on themselves.
It provides an introduction to the terminology, key concepts and
functions of the Internet and its major protocols.
IP is now the foundation of virtually all communications from Email
to voice and even next generation television networks. It is crucial
for all strategic staff to appreciate its functions, possibilities,
limitations and advantages. The ability to discuss key concepts and
appreciate how IP based services function is important to all key
staff today.
