Summary: Ethernet Part 1: Ethernet Fundamentals Training CD
Review: Course Overview

This is the first course in a three part series that introduces Ethernet. Students will learn both Ethernet's origin and the fundamental concepts needed to understand Ethernet. It also covers Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection, Ethernet Media, encoding method and Ethernet Frame types. All of these topics are building blocks needed to understand the more advanced forms of Ethernet covered in later topics.

Learn To

* Identify network fundamentals and the standards and elements of Ethernet.

* Identify the media and devices used for an Ethernet network and the 5-4-3 rule for an Ethernet network.

* Identify the Media Access Control protocol used by Ethernet.

* Identify Manchester encoding and Ethernet frame formats.



Audience

The audience for this course includes technical managers, system administrators, and system analysts. Students should have knowledge of computers and basic networking concepts.
