Network Design

This module aims to provide an understanding of the principles of networking, network design and network architecture and infrastructures. A number of core networking topics will be delivered. Students will learn about introduction to network design, Hierarchical Network design, Scalable network design, Network devices selection, Network configuration and simulation.

At the end of this module, you will be able to:

1. Demonstrate an in-depth understanding of networking principles
2. Describe the Network Architectures that can be used as a framework for designing enterprise networks and be able to explain how this concept addresses enterprise network needs for performance, scalability, and availability
3. Explain considerations for designing a scalable network
4. Demonstrate an understanding of configuring networking devices and build a small network from scratch
