Networking

Networking class teaches students the fundamentals of computer networks, including how devices communicate, transfer data, and stay connected. Topics typically cover network types (LAN, WAN, MAN), protocols (like TCP/IP, HTTP, and DNS), hardware components (routers, switches, firewalls), and network security practices. Students often learn to configure networks, troubleshoot connectivity issues, and understand concepts such as IP addressing, subnetting, and wireless networking. The course combines theoretical knowledge with practical skills to prepare students for roles in IT support, network administration, and cybersecurity.
