Designing Secured and Reliable Computer Networks

blended course

During the course, students will be introduced to the best practices of designing reliable and redundant computer network topologies. The aim: the creation of networks resistant to various types of failures. Redundancy issues in the second and third layer will be raised. Various methods of computer networks management will be presented. First, the standard methods of configuration and IOS systems management. Secondly, modern methods of programming SDN networks will be practiced, during which students will train the centralized configuration of devices using Python scripts and the API of IOS systems. Due to the increasing popularity of computer networks, the group of people interested in breaking into them is also growing. Therefore, the next part of the course is devoted to securing networks and network devices against attacks and overload. The final part will be devoted to monitoring and analyzing network traffic and detecting threats or attacks.
