IT news and products; Network Instruments releases NI University course schedule for 2007.Network Instruments has released its Network Instruments University (NIU NIU Northern Illinois University NIU Niue (ISO Country code) NIU Network Interface Unit NIU Not in Use NIU National Interdiction Unit (Afghanistan) NIU National I-Lan University ) course schedule for the United States in 2007. NIU courses provide basic and advanced training on TCP/IP TCP/IP in full Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol Standard Internet communications protocols that allow digital computers to communicate over long distances. network analysis, troubleshooting WLAN See wireless LAN. WLAN - wireless local area network environments, addressing network security problems, and VoIP analysis. The first courses for 2007 will be held in Orlando, Florida, on January 29-30. Additional classes will follow throughout the year in Houston, New York City New York City: see New York, city. New York City City (pop., 2000: 8,008,278), southeastern New York, at the mouth of the Hudson River. The largest city in the U.S. , Chicago, Kansas City, Seattle, Atlanta, and San Francisco. Students who complete the basic and advanced TCP/IP curriculum will become a Certified Network Instruments Administrator (CNIA CNIA Canadian Nursing Informatics Association CNIA Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Agropecuarias (Peru, Argentina, Colombia, Dominica, San Salvador) CNIA Collectif National des Infirmières Anesthésistes ). Network administrators who achieve this CNIA distinction will have the proficiency required to easily locate, isolate, and resolve even the most complex networking problems. "Through NIU courses, network engineers obtain the knowledge and hands-on experience to manage almost any network problem," said Bruce Clark, vice-president of sales for Network Instruments. "The courses effectively prepare students for the myriad of network challenges they will face. Students completing both the basic and advanced courses will have confidence in quickly troubleshooting basic network issues as well as managing advanced technologies, such as VoIP and wireless networks." Each NIU course spans two days and includes a combination of theory and practice with hands-on labs utilizing the Observer analyzer. Four course options are available: TR01--Basic Network Analysis Provides a logical troubleshooting approach for capturing and analyzing data frames, and reviews the benefits of using a comprehensive Expert system. Course covers IP telephony and teaches how to successfully deploy VoIP technology. Students learn to troubleshoot, monitor, and optimize network traffic. TR02--TCP/IP Network AnalysisTeaches troubleshooting methods for all layers of the TCP/IP stack and how to analyze buffers to find and correct erroneous conditions with upper-layer protocols. TR02 also dives into the SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) A widely used network monitoring and control protocol. Data are passed from SNMP agents, which are hardware and/or software processes reporting activity in each network device (hub, router, bridge, etc. model and the RMON (Remote MONitoring) Enhancements to the management information base (MIB) structure used by the simple network management protocol (SNMP). In 1991, RMON added comprehensive network monitoring capabilities. MIB (1) (Management Information Base) The hierarchical database used by the simple network management protocol (SNMP) to describe the particular device being monitored. MIB objects are identified using ASN.1 syntax. See SNMP, RMON, OID and ASN.1. structure. TR10--WLAN Analysis Provides a logical troubleshooting approach for capturing and analyzing WLAN data frames to monitor 802.11 traffic. This class also discusses WLAN principles, physical layer components, 802.11 configurations, capturing data in Expert mode, beaconing, fragmentation, WEP, authentication, associations, and performing WLAN site surveys. TR30--Network Security Analysis Focuses on issues and signature-based threat detection to secure the network. Students learn to identify common threats, filter for specific signatures, isolate and prevent attacks, as well as understand different methods of network penetration. www.networkinstruments.com |
