Wireless LANAdministration
Pre-Requisites: Prior knowledge of Networking Concepts understanding of Network Protocols is preferredhowever, is not necessary. It is recommended, but not required to have knowledge aboutconcepts in IP Addressing. Benefits: The wireless network market continues to grow because of the additional productivity thatwireless network access brings to any organization. Properly trained and certified individuals are needed to make networks secure, cost-effective, andreliable.
A wireless network is intended for mobile users as asupplement to the capabilities of a "wired" networkinfrastructure.
Laptops that are properly configured for a wirelessenvironment can now access Internet and campusnetwork services without the restriction of physicallyplugging into a "wired" network jack.
Access to popular services such as E-mail, Internet browsing, and InstantMessaging is now available in designated wireless serviceable areas on campus.
Do you want to know how to get started? Follow the following additional information..
