Learning outcomes
Knowledge
This course aims at providing students with a guided and critical overview of the communications network protocol evolution. The course will mainly focus on the TCP/IP architecture of the current Internet and on the Ethernet protocol. Finally the most recently introduced standards will be presented. Protocols (e.g., MPLS) and algorithms for traffic engineering and resilience will be introduced. Elements of event driven simulation will be provided. The concept presented in class will become topic of lab experiments.
