Computer Lab - College of Engineering
Network Administration Course
A hands-on course in network fundamentals, device configuration and fault handling, for technical staff across the colleges.
The course gives a practical grounding to whoever looks after the network inside their college, so common faults can be diagnosed and cleared without waiting on the department's team.
Exercises run on real hardware in the computer lab and cover configuring switches and access points and reading device logs.
Participants are expected to be comfortable with operating systems and desktop network settings before attending.
