[PS2] Computer Networks 2

Main objectives of the course:

After completing the course, students acquire and expand their knowledge of communication networks by other areas.

Students will:
– be familiar with the design and scaling of communication networks
– know more advanced routing protocols and their basic troubleshooting
– be familiar with the technologies used in large-scale WANs
– be able to apply the principles of hierarchical design of communication networks
– be able to identify and select appropriate solutions for internet connectivity
– know and use basic monitoring techniques
– apply a systematic approach to the troubleshooting of communication problems on the network
– be able to configure basic network settings on Juniper and Mikrotik network elements

The course will be recognized by a student who has successfully completed the CCNA4 Connecting Networks course during secondary school, version 6 or 5, and holds the previous 3 certificates (CCNA1-3). Applicants for engineering study program "Applied Network Engineering (ASI)" are strongly encouraged to complete the course.
Co-requisites:
Course requirements:
Continuous assessment / evaluation:
It consists of two parts:
A. Continuous tests with open questions
- [weight 25% of the total score] - it is necessary to achieve at least 60% success.

B. Final test with closed questions
CCNA ENSA Final Exam test - [weight 15% of total score] - it is necessary to achieve at least 60% score. If the student reaches the CCNA ENSA Final test min. 75%, has the opportunity to apply for the voucher - discount on the internationally recognized industrial certification exam of the entire CCNA Routing&Switching content, which can also be done at KIS FRI UNIZA (PearsonVue accredited testing center).
Final assessment /evaluation:
It consists of two parts:
A. Final test with open questions
- [weight of 25% of the total score] - it is necessary to achieve at least 60% success.

B. SKILL Exam
- [weight 35% of the total score] - the assignment of the practical task contains the content of the whole course. It is necessary to achieve at least 60% points from the practical exam.

The final score is the sum of the continuous evaluation and the final examination:
Total score = Continuous open questions [25%] + CCNA ENSA FINAL exam [15%] + Final open questions [25%] + SKILL exam [35%],
with at least 60% success for each section.

Final grade:
<92, 100> points A
<84, 92) points B
<76, 84) points C
<68, 76) points D
<60, 68) points E
<0, 60) points FX
To enroll for an exam student must have 24 points.
