Course Description

This course is designed to cover fundamental and advanced concepts in network theory and system administration. Use of the network operation system in planning and management of directory services and network file systems are stressed. Additional topics include: management of devices, application software and mail systems, data communications, network security, setting up and maintaining user accounts, protecting network data, and network printing.

Computer Center Requirement

As part of this course, students should avail themselves of further study and/or educational assistance available in the Computer Centers located on the first and second floors of building B. The Computer Centers are located in rooms B225 and B227 (when not in use by scheduled classes). Due to the specific hardware and software requirements of this course, the resources in B227 and B225 are available for student usage to access the network operating system that will be used in this course. Use of the resources in the Computer Centers is deemed an integral part of the course, and will help the student master necessary knowledge and skills. Admittance to the Computer Center will require a valid NCC identification card.
