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
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.

 * 2) Read OSI Model.
 * 3) Read Internetworking Basics.
 * 4) Read The TCP/IP Model.
 * 5) Read Change TCP/IP Settings.

Activity 2 - Understand IPv4
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
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
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
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
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.
