In the IT world, the TCP/IP protocol stack plays a predominant role. Even applications such as telephony, which formerly had nothing to do with IP, are now an integral part of TCP/IP. Knowledge of the associated protocols is an absolute must for any system or network administrator. The know-how imparted with many practical examples enables the participants to actively participate in the planning, setup, operation and administration of IP-based networks. The focus of this course is on communication between clients and servers, the protocols and services required for this, and the most common TCP/IP-based applications.
