CompTIA Network+

This course covers the heart of the Network+ exam and the foundation of every network: TCP/IP and routing. Covering approximately 4 hours and 1 minute of expert instruction across TCP/IP fundamentals and routing concepts, learners develop a deep understanding of how IP addressing, subnetting, and routing protocols enable inter-network communications. Learners benefit by mastering IPv4 and IPv6 addressing, subnetting and CIDR, NAT, and dynamic routing protocols including OSPF and BGP — knowledge that is directly tested throughout the Network+ exam and applied daily in network administration roles. online labs reinforce IP configuration and routing tasks. By the end of this course, learners will be able to configure IP addressing schemes, implement subnetting, and explain how packets are routed across networks.

This course covers the application-layer protocols and services that run on top of TCP/IP and the security mechanisms that protect them. Covering approximately 4 hours and 19 minutes of expert instruction across network services, application protocols, and TCP/IP security, learners develop the skills to configure and secure the services that users depend on daily. Learners benefit by understanding DNS, DHCP, NTP, email protocols, web services, file transfer protocols, and how to secure network communications using firewalls, access control lists, and secure protocol alternatives. online labs reinforce service configuration and security implementation tasks. By the end of this course, learners will be able to configure common network services, implement TCP/IP security controls, and explain how application-layer protocols operate in enterprise networks.

This course launches with the foundational networking concepts and physical layer technologies that underpin all network communications. Covering approximately 4 hours of expert instruction across networking fundamentals, the OSI and TCP/IP models, cabling standards, Ethernet, and structured cabling, learners build the conceptual and physical foundation for all subsequent networking studies. Learners benefit by understanding how data flows through networks, how physical media and connectors are selected and installed, and how to troubleshoot cabling problems. online labs reinforce physical installation and cable identification tasks. By the end of this course, learners will be able to describe network models, identify and install network media, and apply structured cabling standards to real-world installations.

This course covers the advanced LAN technologies and wide-area network services that enterprise networks are built on. Covering approximately 3 hours and 25 minutes of expert instruction across Ethernet switching, VLANs, spanning tree, IPv6, and WAN connectivity options, learners develop the skills to build and connect enterprise network segments. Learners benefit by understanding how managed switches operate, how VLANs segment networks for security and performance, how IPv6 is deployed alongside IPv4, and how organizations connect to the Internet and remote sites through WAN technologies. online labs reinforce VLAN configuration and IPv6 addressing tasks. By the end of this course, learners will be able to configure managed switches, implement VLANs, deploy IPv6 addressing, and explain WAN connectivity options.

This course covers the technologies that define how modern networks are designed, deployed, and operated, including wireless networking, virtualization, data centers, and network infrastructure management. Covering approximately 4 hours and 39 minutes of expert instruction, learners develop the skills to build and manage contemporary enterprise network environments. Learners benefit by understanding how to plan and implement wireless networks using current Wi-Fi standards, how network virtualization and SDN reshape infrastructure delivery, and how to manage network infrastructure including monitoring, documentation, and high availability design. online labs reinforce wireless configuration and network management tasks. By the end of this course, learners will be able to deploy wireless networks, explain network virtualization concepts, and manage enterprise network infrastructure professionally.
