The CompTIA Network+ course prepares the student to take the CompTIA Network+ N10-007 certification exam. It covers all exam (N10-007) objectives and additional topics that provide background and context. Demonstrations and instructor commentary throughout the course come from real-world experience. Included are examples and tips that the network professional can use in a production network environment. This course is ideal for an individual developing a career in an IT infrastructure group. During this network course, you will learn concepts that cover troubleshooting, network management, installation and configuration of networks.
Provided CompTIA certifications are vendor-neutral, students will be able to validate his/her skill set in working with network concepts across multiple vendors. It is recommended that students taking the CompTIA Network+ course, have successfully completed the CompTIA IT Fundamentals and CompTIA A+
courses.
Specifically, in this course, you will:
- Describe networking concepts
- Explain the function and installation of network infrastructure components
- Describe network operations concepts and implementation
- Describe network security concepts and implementation
- Explain network troubleshooting techniques and tool usage
