ACIT4010 Enterprise Networking: Practices and Technologies Emneplan

This course gives students hands-on experience in the design, configuration and troubleshooting of networks. This course is rooted in a theoretical and technical overview of the field. General understanding of all layers of the networking stack is required. However, the focus is mainly on networking, i.e. how to make networks work and how to keep them working. Thus, routing, switching and services that support networking (e.g. DHCP and DNS) are core topics. Furthermore, the course focuses on large-scale scenarios where networking can be challenging.

This course has a limited number of spaces. A maximum of 22 students will be admitted on a first come, first served basis.

No formal requirements over and above the admission requirements.

The student should have the following outcomes upon completing the course:

Knowledge

Upon successful completion of the course, the student:

• has the advanced knowledge required to make the right design choices when tasked with designing an enterprise-sized or large-scale network
• has advanced knowledge about best practice for configuration of enterprise-sized or large-scale network
• has advanced knowledge about methods of troubleshooting an enterprise-sized or large-scale network

Skills

Upon successful completion of the course, the student:

• has the technical experience required to analyse and design an enterprise-sized or large-scale network
• has hands-on experience in setting up and configuring an enterprise-sized or large- scale network, focusing primarily on routing, switching and services that support networking (e.g. DHCP and DNS)
• masters different approaches to troubleshooting a network, including traffic analysis

General competence

Upon successful completion of the course, the student:

• has a broad overview of networking theory and practice and knows how to put theoretical networking knowledge into practice in an actual network
• is able to analyse and discuss how networks of different types should be designed, configured and maintained.

Eksamen består av to deler, en mappevurdering og en muntlig presentasjon med fagsamtale. Begge deler av eksamen må være vurdert til E eller bedre for at eksamen skal være bestått.

1. Mappevurdering

Minimum fire utvalgte arbeidskrav levert i emnet. Arbeidskravene skal være videreutviklet/forbedret. Mappevurdering teller 60% av karakteren. Eksamensresultatet kan påklages.

2. Muntlig presentasjon med fagdidaktisk refleksjon

Individuell muntlig eksamen består både av en presentasjon og en faglig samtale. I presentasjonen skal kandidaten utforske en fagdidaktisk problemstilling. Den muntlige delen teller 40% av karakteren. Eksamensresultatet kan ikke påklages.

Se undervisningsplanene for nærmere informasjon om eksamen.

Alle hjelpemidler er tillatt så lenge regler for kildehenvisning følges.

Gradert skala A-F.

To interne sensorer. Ekstern sensor brukes jevnlig.
