Audience

Anyone, from IT professionals to general computer users, who want to learn about the types of interface card, connector, and network hardware used to create a network; students preparing for the relevant Novell etworking Technologies exam

Prerequisites

An understanding of personal computers and operating systems and completion of all preceding courses in the Novell Networking Technologies curriculum

Course Aim

To describe different routing methods and how routing works using IPX and TCP/IP

Learning Objectives

Discuss how RIP operates and is implemented in an IPX network. Explain how SAP works in routing. Describe the benefits of using RIP and SAP for distance vector routing. Illustrate the functions of NLSP for routing IPX. Give an overview of the steps involved in learning, building, and maintaining routes and routing databases using LSP. Highlight the advantages of NLSP over RIP/SAP. Outline distance vector routing with RIP in a TCP/IP network and introduce RIP II. List the steps involved in building and converging routing tables using RIP. Point out the differences between distance vector and link state routing.
