Description of  Understanding Network Transports

Understanding Network Transports .MP4, AVC, 1280x720, 30 fps English, AAC, 2 Ch 8h 14m 14.32 GB Instructors: Russ White, Ethan Banks This video considers the engineering problems to solve when transporting data from one device to another over a network and the solutions available for those problems. The presentation follows the pattern of the Recursive InterNetworking Architecture, or RINA, model, in breaking the problems down into marshaling, multiplexing, error handling, and flow control. For each of these four problems, a set of solutions is presented, such as marshaling grammars, addressing, forward error correction, and windowing. After the theoretical foundation is in place, several implementations are discussed to "fill out" the problems and solutions presented. The video also considers the problem of interlayer discovery-and some of the solutions available in this space-to provide a complete picture of data transport in a computer network. By learning the basic problems required to transport information across a network, and a common set of solutions to those problems, engineers can anticipate new technologies. New technologies are almost always a new implementation of some already known solution, designed to solve a problem that is already well-understood. By learning these common problems, and a range of solutions for each one, engineers can learn to ask the questions needed to quickly guide their learning in new technologies and products, as well as in quickly understanding where any solutions may face implementation or theoretical problems. Skill Level Beginner to Expert Learn How To Understand the problem space of transporting information across a network Explain the most common solutions for resolving the problems involved in carrying information across a network Gain a solid understanding of many common protocols and solutions Learn about a common, but often neglected, area of network operation-transporting data through a network Develop the mental tools required to think about how networks work Develop the mental tools required to ask the right questions about new technologies and protocols as they are developed, allowing you to quickly understand new technologies and products as they are released by relating them to previously developed technologies Develop the ability to understand why particular implementation choices were made, and what the tradeoffs are in each situation Enhance troubleshooting ability by understanding how each technology works and what problems might arise with any particular solution Who Should Take This Course The target audience for this video includes: Beginning learners just starting a career in network engineering Intermediate-level network engineers who have some experience, and perhaps an associates or professional-level certification, who would like to take their career to the next level Experienced network engineers who would like to fill in their knowledge, or understand why things work the way they do, rather than simply how they work Programmers who would like to understand the operation of networks in order to improve their ability to write network-based applications Development operations engineers who would like to understand why networks operate the way they do, and possible migrate into full-time network engineering roles College students who are taking courses in or majoring in information technology who would like to supplement their learning in the network engineering space College students taking a course, which uses the Problems and Solutions in Network Engineering book as course material, and would like additional material to help them to better understand the material The market for this product is not restricted to a small subset of learners, as it addresses fundamental concepts in a way that is applicable for many different kinds of students in a wide variety of learning situations.
