General goals

This course aims to further students' knowledge on the basic concepts of the TCP/IP protocols and the structure of data communication networks (Internet) that they have gained in prior courses (XC and PXC). This course focuses on more advanced concepts, such as EGP routing, Spanning Tree protocol, wireless networks, mobility and multimedia support. The main topics are organized as follows:

- Routing (OSPF, BGP, Peering).
- Wireless networks and mobility (Wireless networks, mobile IP).
- Multimedia (Coding, scheduling mechanisms, multimedia protocols).

Specific goals

Knowledges

  1. Support for mobility in IP wireless networks.
  2. Routing protocols for medium-sized and large networks. Internet Service Providers (ISPs).
  3. Support for multimedia transmission over the Internet.
  4. Multimedia applications and related protocols.
  5. L2 routing (STP)
