TCP/IP on the exams
|
|
| Developwebsites 2003-11-22, 12:24 am |
| For someone who just wants an A+ and Network+ and maybe MS and Cisco certs is
it necessary to study TCP/IP in depth? A course at my college uses
this big fat TCP/IP book for the entire semester. No hands-on in that class.
But it is a prerequisite.
How important is TCP/IP knowledge for PC techs, networking?
Perhaps sysadmins need to know it better than techs, but is it used
on the job or is this just useless fun knowledge like astronomy, philosophy,
ASM and discrete structures?
Are there many questions on it on the exams?

| You won't get past Cisco without a thorough knowledge of the TCP/IP
stack. It is an integral part of what makes networks work. You could
do some networking using NetBEUI or IPX/SPX but since the Internet
relies on TCP/IP it is a necessary knowledge base. Don't fear it, it
is simply a language that computers use to comunicate to one another.
This comunication IS networking. I work as a System Administrator and
deal with TCP/IP on a daily basis. Techs should know some of it so
that they can comunicate with the admins and possibly advance in their
careers. If you just want to swap hard drives and do cable drops the
rest of your life then don't bother. If you want any networking certs
then learn TCP/IP.

| Because there were at least 6 perhaps as many as 8 questions in it that
could get someone "upset" enough to respond to. My rule of thumb is - more
then 2 or maybe 3 questions and it is a troll and should be ignored.
