Page 1

COURSE DESCRIPTION This is the second of a two semester sequence designed to provide students with classroom and laboratory experience in current and emerging networking technology that will empower them to enter employment and/or further education and training in the computer networking field. Instruction introduces and extends the student’s knowledge and practical experience with routers, switches, Local Area Networks (LAN’s), and Virtual Local Area Networks (VLAN’s) design, configuration, and maintenance. In addition, the student will learn and have practical experience with Wide Area Networks (WANs), Integrated Services Data Networks (ISDN), Point-to-Point Protocols (PPP) and Frame Relay design, configuration, and maintenance. Students develop practical experience in skills related to configuring LAN’s, WAN’s, Novell networks, Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) routing and Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP), configuring WAN’s, ISDN, PPP and Frame Relay protocols and network troubleshooting. This course consists of seven hours of lecture and three hours of lab per week. At the conclusion of this course, the student will earn eight credits

PREREQUISITES A grade of C or better in ELEC 151 or NETW 151, or CCNA Semester 1 and 2 at another CNAP institution. This course is not open to students who have already taken ELEC 152.

FINAL GRADE The final grade will be determined by the following: 70% for exams and quizzes. 30% for Laboratory Performance, Laboratory Skills Practical 100% Grade for the Course The following scale will be used to determine satisfactory progress on each unit examination and for the final as follows:

Final Grade Range A 90 to 100 B 80 to 89 C 70 to 79 D 65 to 69 F Below 65

You must obtain a grade of C or better to use this course as a prerequisite for NETW 152. INCOMPLETE It is the student's responsibility to submit all classwork on a timely basis, and it is expected that all course requirements be completed by the last class meeting. In cases of hardship or emergency your instructor may grant a grade of INC. In order to be considered for the grade INC, the student must have satisfactorily completed 80% of the course, have a passing test average, and must meet with the instructor prior to the last class meeting to discuss this option. Your instructor is under no obligation to grant an INC. In the event that you are granted an INC, it must be completed by the first week of the following semester or an earlier date specified by the instructor. WITHDRAWING FROM CLASS Last day to withdraw from a class with a grade W is the 10th week. While a W does not affect your GPA, it may have impact if you are receiving Financial Aid. Before withdrawing from any class, you should consult with your counselor, or a Financial Aid representative. CORE COMPETENCIES The student will design, build, and install local area networks in various configurations using Cisco routers and switches and other common network hardware.

7.2 Conduct and complete effective research. 7.4 Use appropriate technologies and services to access and process information.

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY Academic integrity is submitting one's own work, and properly acknowledging the work of others. Any violation of this principle constitutes academic dishonesty. Academic dishonesty includes: Plagiarism

Submitting another's work, in whole or part, as one's own. This includes an examination, a computer program, a laboratory report, or a written assignment.

Facilitating Academic Dishonesty Helping another commit an act of dishonesty, such as substituting for an examination or completing an assignment for someone else.

Cheating Using or attempting to use unauthorized materials on an examination or assignment, such as using unauthorized texts or notes or improperly obtaining, or attempting to obtain, copies of an examination or answers to an examination.

Illegal System Access Altering, transmitting, or permitting unauthorized individuals to access your account, or an attempt to alter or destroy system files on any server or computer. This also includes altering, transmitting, or attempting to alter or transmit academic information or records by unauthorized individuals.

Students that participate in dishonest activities: ♦ will receive a 0 for that project, examination, or assignment ♦ may be given a grade of F for the course ♦ will be reported to the Dean for disciplinary action
