Train Signal CompTIA Network+ 2007

Train Signal CompTIA Network+ 2007
Note: Our Network+ 2007 Training course will still be beneficial if you are not planning to take the certification exam and simply want to learn the ins-and-outs of Network+. If you have any questions concerning Network+ certficiation please contact us at support@trainsignal.com.

CompTIA Network+ 2007 Course Outline
Video 1
Intro to CompTIA Network+ 2007

Intro to the course, Chris Bryant, and the course outline.

* Introduction to your Instructor: Chris Bryant
* Course Outline
Video 2
The OSI Model

Beyond passing the exam, this information is important for you to truly understand what’s going on in a network, and what’s going on at each layer. It will help you also to understand networks – sending data from one point and receiving it at another.

* Application Layer
* Presentation Layer
* Session Layer
* Transport Layer
* Network Layer
* Data Link Layer
* Physical Layer
* Data Terminology
Video 3
Physical Networking

This video covers Network Topologies. We will discuss the physical setup of the network, how PC and other devices are connected, and the mapping of the physical components.

* Bus, Star, Ring Topologies
* Token Ring Networks
* FDDI, ATM
* Frame Relay
* T1, E1 Lines
* Full and Partial Mesh Topologies
* Topology Review (High Points)
Video 4
MAC Addresses

Before we discuss how MAC addresses work with and are used by switches, it’s important to know what MAC addresses are, how they are built, and the address format. This information is both vital in the real world and for passing the exam.

* How MAC Addresses are Used
* Mac Address Format and Hexadecimal Conversion
* Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)
* Proxy ARP
* Reverse ARP
Video 5
CSMACD and VLANs

We will discuss the definition of collision, and how CSMACD helps lower the number of collisions in a shared segment environment. We will also clear up any confusion between collision and broadcast domains for the exam. Followed by a discussion of VLANs and how they differ from physical for future networking experience, Layer 3 Switches, and Ethernet Standards to prepare you for both the real world and exam time.

* Collisions and CSMA/CD in a Shared Network environment
* Collision and Broadcast Domain
* Virtual LANs
* Layer Three Switches
* “Router On A Stick”
* IEEE Ethernet Standards
Video 6
Network Protocols Part 1

In this video we will discuss network protocols: in-depth look at each, comparisons, benefits, and drawbacks of each.

* TCP and UDP
* DHCP
* ICMP
* DNS
Video 7
Network Protocols Part 2

In this video we will discuss network protocols: in-depth look at each, comparisons, benefits, and drawbacks of each.

* SMTP and POP3
* IMAP
* Telnet & SSH
* Point to Point Protocol(PPP)
* WINS
* IGMP
* Common Port Numbers
Video 8
IP Addressing & NAT

We will discuss basic binary conversions, which are vital in understanding where an IP address comes from and what it means. We will also discuss default and private IP addresses, what it means, and why we subnet.

* IP Addressing Basics
* IP Addressing Classes
* Private Address Ranges
* Network Address Translation
* Port Address Translation(PAT)
* Why We Subnet
Video 9
Disaster Recovery

This is the most important topic in this course, not just for your exam, but also for use in real networks. We will discuss plans put into place, not put into place, and the importance of data backups. We will discuss real world situations and how well a network is able to recover from problems, based on the planning put forth before an everyday problem occurs.

* Surge Protectors
* UPS
* Line Conditioners
* RAID Levels
* Duplexing and Mirroring
* Data Backup Types and Plans
* Data Backup Methods and Devices
* DAS, NAS, and SAN
* Hot, Warm, and Cold Sites
Video 10
Network Components

We will cover common devices found in networks – the misconceptions, and dos & don’ts with each. To acquaint you with each device, we will talk about how they work with routers and switches, and walk through the processes of each.

* Hubs and Repeaters
* Switches
* Routers and Gateways
* NICs
* Modems
* CSU/DSUs and Firewalls
* Proxy Servers
* Transceivers
Video 11
LAN Troubleshooting

This video covers samples of protocols and commands to run on a workstation. These are the main protocols that will help you identify an issue. We will discuss troubleshooting case studies of typical LAN issues that you will need to know for work in the real world. 80-90% of your job will consist of troubleshooting.

* Workstation and LAN Troubleshooting
* ARP
* IPCONFIG, WINIPCFG
* NETSTAT
* PING and TRACERT
* LAN Troubleshooting Case Studies
Video 12
Antivirus

Viruses, other threats, and antivirus programs. This is one of the most important videos for the exam and to maintain a healthy network. Millions of dollars are spend each year repairing the damage caused by attacks, which can be avoided by the preventive measures (antivirus programs) we discuss in this video.

* Viruses, Other Threats, and Antivirus Programs
* Trojan Horses, Worms and Viruses
* Stopping Viruses Before They Enter the Network
* Choosing & Configuring an Antivirus Program
* Turning Anti-Virus Programs Off
Video 13
Security Protocols

This section focuses on an overview of security protocols to get you familiar with how they operate for both the exam and real world.

* SSL & TLS
* WEP & WPA
* L@TP & IPSec
* PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP and SLIP
* RADIUS & TACACS+
* PGP
* Kerberos
Video 14
Cables

This detail-oriented video is important for both passing the exam, knowing the differences and max lengths of cables, and understanding real-world troubleshooting at the most physical level.

* Coaxial Cable
* Twisted-Pair Cable
* UTP Categories
* 10 and 100BaseT Network Design Rules
* Fiber Optic
* Cable Capacity
* Cable Connectors
* Crossover, Straight-through, and Rollover Cables
* Cabling Tools
Video 15
