Operating systems for microcomputers, work stations, minicomputers and mainframe computers are explored.
CIT 215S MICROCOMPUTER HARDWARE (HP IT ESSENTIALS I)In-depth, hands-on exploration of microcomputer hardware, components and peripherals. Emphasis on the importance of the microcomputer specialist's ability to recognize, install, change and modify computer systems and components. Configuration and connection of peripheral equipment is explored, as is the installation of network hardware and cabling.
CSC 115S FUNDAMENTALS OF VOICE AND DATA CABLING (PNIE)Provides and interview of cabling and networking industry standards as well as emerging cabling technologies. Students will document, design and install network cabling, describe laboratory safety and on-the-job safety, and work effectively in group environments. Students will become familiar with cabling issues related to data and voice connections, media and transmissions practices, and cabling customer support. The content of this course helps prepare students for the Panduit Certified Technician certification exam.
CSC 116S FUNDAMENTALS OF NETWORK SECURITY (FNS)Provides students with the knowledge and skills necessary to design and implement fundamental network security solutions to reduce the risk of revenue loss and vulnerability of network resources. Fundamentals of Network Security helps prepare students to take the SECUR (Securing Cisco IOS Networks) and CSPFA (Cisco Secure PIX Firewall Advanced) exams in preparation for the Cisco Firewall Specialist. These exams also count toward security-professional-level CCSP certification. Successful completion of the course also helps prepare students for the CompTIA Security+ exam.
CSC 117S FUNDAMENTALS OF WIRELESS LANS (FWL)Provides students with the knowledge and skills necessary to understand radio technologies associated with WLAN 802.11 standards, understand WLAN and bridge topologies and applications, configure WLAN products including access points, bridges, client devices and accessories, explain software and management features, configure various security methods for Wireless LAN environments, understand basic antenna theory, and understand how to perform a site survey covering WLAN topology and design. Fundamentals of Wireless LANs helps students to achieve the Cisco Wireless LAN Support Specialist designation (WLANFE).
CSC 110S NETWORKS AND LAYERS (CCNA 1)Provides students with an introduction to the computer and data networking field. Focuses on network terminology and protocols, local-area networks (LANs), wide-area networks (WANs), Open System Interconnection (OSI) models, cabling, cabling tools, routers, router configuration, Ethernet, Internet Protocol (IP) addressing, and networking standards. First of four courses helping students prepare for the Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) certification exam. Prerequisite: grade of “C” or better in CIT 215S or A+ certification or department approval. Lab fee.
CSC 111S ROUTER USE (CCNA 2)Provides students with the knowledge and skills necessary for initial router configuration, router software management, routing protocol configuration, TCP/IP, and access control lists (ACLs). Second of four courses helping students prepare for the Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) certification exam. Prerequisite: grade of “C” or better in CSC 110S. Lab fee.
CSC 130S VIRTUAL LANS (CCNA 3)Provides students with the knowledge and skills necessary for Variable Length Subnet Masks (VLSM), intermediate routing protocols such as RIP v2, single-area OSPF, and EIGRP, performing command-line interface configuration of switches, Ethernet switching, virtual LANs (VLANs), spanning tree protocol (STP), and the VLAN trunking protocol (VTP). Third of four courses helping students prepare for the Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) certification exam. Prerequisite: grade of “C” or better in CSC 111S. Lab fee.
CSC 131S WIDE AREA NETWORKING (CCNA 4)Provides students with a study of wide area networks (WANs) including advanced IP addressing techniques, network address translation (NAT), port address translation (PAT), dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP), WAN technology and terminology, PPP, ISDN, DDR, frame relay, and network management. Fourth of four courses helping students prepare for the Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) certification exam. Prerequisite: grade of “C” or better in CSC 130S. Lab fee.
CSC 150S ADVANCED ROUTING (CCNP 1)Introduction to advanced routing protocols required on scalable networks. Topics include OSPF, EIGRP, and BGP operations and configuration. Building Scalable Networks addresses those tasks that network managers and administrators need to perform when managing access and controlling overhead traffic in growing, routed, networks once basic connectivity has been established. BSN discusses router capabilities used to control traffic over LANs and WANs, as well as connecting corporate networks to an Internet Service Provider (ISP). Prepares the student to pursue the Cisco CCNP examination. Prerequisite: CSC 131S or CCNA certification.
CSC 151S REMOTE ACCESS (CCNP 2)The study of how to build a remote access network to interconnect central sites to branch offices and home office/telecommuters and then control access to the central site, as well as maximize bandwidth utilization over the remote links. Prepares the student to pursue the Cisco CCNP examination. Prerequisite: CSC 131S or CCNA certification. Lab Fee.
CSC 170S MULTI-LAYER SWITCHING (CCNP 3)The study of building campus networks using multi-layer switching technologies over high speed Ethernet. The class will include an overview of SPT, bridging, switching and VLAN management. Students will also design, configure and troubleshoot multi-layered switched and routed networks. The class is designed to prepare the student to pursue the Cisco CCNP examination. Prerequisite: CSC 131S or CCNA certification.
CSC 171S NETWORK TROUBLESHOOTING (CCNP 4)The study of how to baseline and troubleshoot a LAN and WAN environment. Students learn to test and identify problems with routers and switches in multiprotocol environments. Topics include Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Token Ring LANs, Serial, Frame Relay and ISDN BRI WANs. The class is designed to prepare the student to pursue the Cisco CCNP examination. Prerequisites: CSC 150S, CSC 151S, and CSC 170S.
