Supervisor:

Department of Telecommunications Engineering

Synopsis:

The course Advanced Network Technologies extends practical knowledge in the field of data networks design. The course is practically orientated and focused on advanced configuration of switches and routers. The students will master virtual LANs, network address translation, WAN technologies, device security and IPv6.

Requirements:

Requirement for the study of this course is knowledge of the subjects discussed in Data Networks and Fundamentals of networking technologies. This course is based precisely on topic knowledge in the above subjects, which hereafter developed. Both of the above items are not formal, necessary prerequisite to this course. The student will be evaluated as 50 % exam, 30% project and 20% of laboratory exercises.

Syllabus of lectures:

1.Introduction to the subject. Repetition of basic concepts

2.Síťový IPv6, addressing, routing, IPv6

3.Cooperation between IPv4 and IPv6

4.Detailed description of the transport protocols TCP and UDP

5.Adaptation of TCP protocol to different network environments

6.Function of border routing protocols like BGPv4

7.Influencing the distribution of data flows through BGPv4 - attributes, scales, AS path, local preferences

8.MPLS backbone network

9.Implementation of MPLS virtual private network

10.IP multicast. Resource-oriented multicast distribution tree, shared tree multicast

11.Dense multicast protocol, PIM - DM, PIM-SM

12.Data network nodes (routers and switches), search algorithms, TCAM table

13. Traffic classification, traffic shaping, multilayer switching, the method of sorting the output queues

14. Network managemen model, SNMP, ASN language for describing data in the MIB database

Syllabus of tutorials:

1.project assignment and introduction into lesson

2.programming principles of routers in the network with the BGP Protocol

3.network implementation with BGP protocol in the laboratory

4.network configuration of multicast routing protocol

5.network implementation of multicast routing protocols like PIM-DM and SM

6.configuration of IPv6 networks

7.test #1

8.building and testing networks with IPv6

9.Analysis of virtual networks (VPN) in MPLS environment

10.building networks with virtual VPN support in a MPLS environment

11.On TCP throughput

12.examples of measuring throughput of the TCP protocol in different types of networks

13.test#2

14.Presentaion of the project results, credit

Study Objective:

Students will be able to design a practically deploy a modern data networks.
