Course Title: "Internet Protocols"
Graduate Level Course
Prerequisites: 35467: Computer Communications Networks

Description:

This course will cover concepts and protocols which enable heterogeneous computer networks to work with each other. Specifically, we will study internet protocols including transport (TCP, UDP), network (IP, IPng), routing (RIP, OSPF), network management (SNMP, SNMPv2, RMON), and other important protocols like ARP, ICMP, DNS, BOOTP, DHCP and HTTP. Advanced topics like Mobile IP, Real-time and reservation protocols (RTP, RSVP), IP multicast (IGMP, MBONE) and network security will also be covered.
