Exam 98-366: Networking Fundamentals/Understanding Protocols and Services

This lesson covers Understanding Protocols and Services. It looks at the OSI model, IPv4, IPv6, name resolution, networking services, and TCP/IP.

Activity 1 - Understand the OSI Model

edit

This objective may include but is not limited to: OSI model; TCP model; examples of devices, protocols, applications and which OSI/TCP layer they belong to; TCP and UDP; well-known ports for most used purposes (not necessarily Internet); packets and frames.

  1. Read The OSI Model's Seven Layers Defined and Functions Explained.
  2. Read OSI Model.
  3. Read Internetworking Basics.
  4. Read The TCP/IP Model.
  5. Read Change TCP/IP Settings.

Activity 2 - Understand IPv4

edit

This objective may include but is not limited to: subnetting; IPconfig; why use IPv6; addressing; ipv4toipv6 tunneling protocols to ensure backwards compatibility; dual ip stack; subnetmask; gateway; ports; packets; reserved address ranges for local use (including local loopback ip).

  1. Read Understanding TCP/IP Addressing and Subnetting Basics.
  2. Read Address Classes.
  3. Read TCP/IP v4 and v6.

Activity 3 - Understand IPv6

edit

This objective may include but is not limited to: subnetting; IPconfig; why use IPv6; addressing; ipv4toipv6 tunneling protocols to ensure backwards compatibility; dual ip stack; subnetmask; gateway; ports; packets; reserved address ranges for local use (including local loopback ip).

Activity 4 - Understand Names Resolution

edit

This objective may include but is not limited to: DNS, WINS, steps in the name resolution process.

  1. Read Windows Internet Names Service (WINS) Overview.
  2. Read Domain Name System.
  3. Read Host Name Resolution.

Activity 5 - Understand Networking Services

edit

This objective may include but is not limited to: DHCP, remote access.

  1. Read Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol.
  2. Read Routing and Remote Access Service.
  3. Read IPsec.

Activity 6 - Understand TCP/IP

edit

This objective may include but is not limited to: tools, such as ping; tracert; pathping; Telnet; IPconfig; netstat, reserved address ranges for local use (including local loopback ip); protocols.

  1. Read How to Use Ping.
  2. Read Using Command Line Tools for Networking Information.
  3. Read Address Allocation for Private Intranets.
