Networking fundamentals

Computers are rarely used as stand-alone machines: at home, at the office, on the move, we are almost always connected to a local network, to the internet, to servers in the cloud.

This training focuses on many aspects of data communication and networks: from hardware to system software and applications; from conceptual and architectural information to specific procedures and useful tips.

Mooie inhoudstafel, lesgever kent zijn vak, sommige zaken mochten iets sneller gebracht worden vb intro om zo meer tijd te maken voor oefeningen en optionele zaken uit de cursus die we niet hebben kunnen doorlopen.

Fantastisch, precies wat ik zocht. Veel van de termen ben ik eerder tegen gekomen, maar niemand heeft het ooit allemaal uitgelegd, tot nu
