Short term course On Practical Approach to Networking At Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur

Full understanding of networking requires not only theoretical knowledge but also practical experience of configuring and testing of nodes, switches and routers. Just theoretical knowledge is not sufficient for designing and running a network. A course with enough hands on coverage of configuring and testing is necessary for proper understanding of networking. This course tries to provide theoretical and hands on experience on BITCOE network testbed where all the features can be configured and tested.
