Description

Essential Skills for Navigating the IP World

Dive into the heart of the IP world and equip yourself with the knowledge to understand and efficiently manage your networks. In this course, you'll learn everything you need to know about computer networks in a clear and practical way.

You will learn how networks and IP addressing work, how to distinguish between IPv4 and IPv6, how to identify and use the different address categories, and how to grasp the full importance of the TCP/IP protocol and the links it forges between IP addresses, physical addresses and DNS names.

NET 302 is aimed mostly at students, Linux users or simply the curious who want to understand the basics of networking and strengthen their autonomy in managing, troubleshooting and optimizing infrastructures.

Join us and turn your knowledge into real operational expertise!


This NET 302 course is an adaptation of the course Network Basics: TCP/IP, IPv4 and IPv6, written in French by Philippe Pierre and published on IT-Connect, under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International license (CC BY-NC 4.0).

Substantial changes have been made to the original version by Loïc Morel: the text has been entirely rewritten, expanded and enriched to provide updated, in-depth content, while preserving the educational spirit of Philippe Pierre's original work. The diagrams have also been revised.
