This seminar will review data communication,
including the seven layer data network model, covers WANs LANs MANs, and
provides the building blocks for executives, technical leaders, and decision
makers, to assume responsibility in any network related work or investment. This
course is a basic introduction and prerequisite for future advanced courses
