Description

The CompTIA Network+ Certification course builds on your existing user-level knowledge and experience with personal computer operating systems and networks to present fundamental skills and concepts that you will use on the job in any type of networking career. If you are pursuing a CompTIA technical certification path, the CompTIA A+ certification is an excellent first step to take before preparing for the CompTIA Network+ certification.

This course is for Entry-level computer support professionals with basic knowledge of computer hardware, software and operating systems, who wish to increase their knowledge and understanding of networking concepts and skills to prepare for a career in network support or administration, or to prepare for the CompTIA Network+ certification, 2011 objectives (exam number N10-004 and JK0-016 ).

A typical student in the CompTIA Network+ certification course should have 9 months or more of professional computer support experience as a PC technician or help desk technician. Network experience is helpful but not required; A+ certification or the equivalent skills and knowledge is helpful but not required. Students will identify and describe all the major networking technologies, systems, skills, and tools in use in modern PC-based computer networks, and learn information and skills that will be helpful as you prepare for the CompTIA Network+ certification examination.

The exam addresses the latest skills needed by technicians, such as basic principles on how to secure a network. The exam covers network technologies, media and topologies, devices, management, tools and security. Although not a prerequisite, it is recommended that CompTIA Network+ candidates have at least nine months of experience in network support or administration or academic training, along with a CompTIA A+ certification. Candidate job roles include network administrator, network technician, network installer, help desk technician and IT cable installer. Companies such as Dell, HP, Ricoh, Sharp and Xerox recommend or require CompTIA Network+ for their networking technicians. The U.S. Department of Defense also recognizes CompTIA Network+.

Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:

  • the basic components of network theory
  • the major network communications methods
  • network data delivery methods
  • list and describe network media and hardware components
  • the major types of network implementations
  • the components of a TCP/IP network implementation
  • the major services deployed on TCP/IP networks
  • characteristics of a variety of network protocols
  • the components of a LAN implementation
  • the components of a WAN implementation
  • major issues and technologies in network security
  • the components of a remote network implementation
  • major issues and technologies in disaster recovery
  • major data storage technologies and implementations
  • the primary network operating systems
  • major issues, models, tools, and techniques in network troubleshooting

Prerequisite:
