Course Platform, Materials, and Certification:

• This is an instructor-led lecture/workshop course, taught onsite at the Booz Allen campus or an offsite facility chosen by BAH.
• To be able to participate in the hands-on activities, please bring a wireless-enabled laptop to the class. If using a company computer, please make sure beforehand you have full administrative rights to install new software on the computer.
• You will be provided with a Participant Handbook containing a copy of the course presentation, exercises and laboratory guide, useful URLs and reading list, and other helpful materials.
• If you attend the entire program and complete all of the assigned lab work, you will receive an Eogogics course completion certificate.

Aimed At

This course is aimed at all IT and telecommunications engineers, managers, and other professionals involved with implementing, maintaining, supporting, or procuring IP products and/or services. It is part of the following BAH certification programs:

• WSE Practitioner: Core Courses

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge of the network layers and protocol operations.

Course in a Nutshell

In this course, you will acquire a solid understanding of IPv4, IPv6, and Mobile IP. This foundational course will leave you well prepared to embark on the study of more advanced topics in IP networking. The course relies heavily on instructor/class interaction and lab exercises to help you maximize your learning and apply the course content to your own on-the-job challenges upon your return to work.
