1. Objectives of the Course

The scope of the course is to provides the foundation for understanding the key aspects of computer network
organization and implementation obtaining a theoretical understanding of data communication and computer
networks. Students will be introduced to computer communication, network design and its operations will be
ready for for Industry Certifications such as CCNA, CCNP etc. The objectives of the course are:
 to build an understanding of the fundamental concepts of computer networking.
 to inculcate the skill in students to construct and debug computer networks.
 to develop, implement and manage computer networking systems within an organization.
 to familiarize with current topics such as network management,security and/or other topics.

2. Course Outcomes
After completion of the course, students will be able to do the following:

CO1: Define the hardware, software, components of a network and the interrelations.
CO2: Explain the role of reference models and the hierarchical relationship of their respective layers.
CO3: Classify the networking protocols and select the appropriate protocol for a particular design.
CO4: Examine the concepts and theories of networking with the real world scenarios.
CO5: Design an enterprise network including topologies, protocols, management and security.
