Course Description

This course will cover the basic principles of networking with a focus on protocols, implementations, and issues specific to the Internet. We will study how routing, transport, and internetworking protocols work using the Internet family of protocols as examples. A significant part of the course will focus on higher layer protocols and the application layer. We will selectively implement new protocols and network services; as such, this course will have rather a substantial programming component.
