1 Computer Information Technology 240 Networking Fall 2013 Sections 1 & 2 Instructor: Textbook: Bradley J. Armstrong CCNA Guide to Cisco Networking, Fourth Edition Office Information: Smith 407 Phone Office Hours MWF 9:30-10:30 armstrongb@byui.edu Course Description: This course teaches general networking principles to provide an understanding of data communication protocols, the OSI model, network addressing, media, and software. Objectives: Describe and install the hardware and software required to be able to communicate across a network. Describe and compare and contrast network communications using two examples of layered models Describe the topologies and physical issues associated with cabling common LANs. Describe how an IP address is associated with a device interface, and the association between physical and logical addressing. Describe the fundamental concepts associated with transport layer protocols and compare connectionless and connection-oriented transport methods. List the major TCP/IP application protocols, and briefly define their features and operations. Attendance: Students are expected to be in class every session. You are responsible for all lectures, in-class exercises, tests or handouts. Students not attending may be dropped from the course. Quizzes: All quizzes will be given in the testing center. They will be available beginning Tuesday and will close Saturday at 2:00 p.m. You have the flexibility to take it any time during the week, but you also have the responsibility to take it before the week ends. If a quiz or test is missed it may not be made up without a medical excuse or arrangements have been made in advance! Dress and Grooming Standards: Virtuous thoughts and actions and language and dress invite the Holy Ghost into our lives. Conversely, casualness about or the breaking of covenants and commitments, failing to pray and study the scriptures, and inappropriate thoughts and actions and language and dress cause the Holy Ghost to withdraw or to avoid us altogether. Can you begin to understand why abiding by the Honor and Dress Codes is so important to your success at Ricks College? These Codes are not about curfew and clothing; rather, they are about commitments and obedience. Most importantly, the Honor and Dress Codes are about inviting the presence of the Holy Ghost into our lives, into our classrooms, and to this special campus. (Elder David A. Bednar, Receiving, Recognizing, and Responding to the promptings of the Holy Ghost@, August 31, 1999) You are expected to abide by the BYU-Idaho Code of Honor and Dress and Grooming Standards. These standards apply to ALL CLASSROOMS AND ALL LABS. If you are not sure of the standards, please read the information found on the BYU-I website at

5 Cheating in any form is unacceptable conduct. Please do your own work. Striving for Excellence: ALearn here the disciplines that will help you travel the course of your lives, the most important of which is self-discipline, the power to govern your thoughts, your words, your acts, notwithstanding the temptations that come before Gordon B. Hinckley An important part of the college experience is gaining employment skills. This includes prioritizing, meeting deadlines, and time management. An important component of this process is turning in a completed assignment on time. I consider turning in the assignment on time in the correct place part of the assignment. There are many activities that students can engage in at the university. It is easy to let these distract from completing the assignments on time. Also students may wait till the last minute only to find the lab is not open or they may have technical difficulties (remember Murphy=s Law). Everyone has the same opportunity and responsibility to complete the assignment on time, so it would be unfair and unethical to accept anyone=s late work. Occasionally there are exceptions, such as health concerns, contact the instructor as soon as possible to discuss alternatives. Technical difficulties are not a valid excuse. Cisco Certification: Students entering the course with Cisco Certification need to contact the instructor within the first two weeks of the course to see about testing out. Students may choose to take the Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) or Cisco Certified Entry Network Technician (CCENT) instead of the final. Students who receive this certification during the semester may bring proof to the instructor before the final exam and will receive an A for the final and will not be required to take the final. Certification testing is not a requirement for this course, and not a course activity. Students attempting certification tests will pay all fees associated with testing, and failure to pass the certification test will not affect the final. Cisco Network Academy tests are not certification tests, and will not substitute for the final. Reasonable Accommodation for Students with Disabilities: In compliance with applicable disability law, qualified students with a disability may be entitled to "reasonable accommodation." It is the student's responsibility to disclose to appropriate personnel in the Services for Students with a Disability (SSD) Office any special need he/she may have and to provide the appropriate documentation of the disability to the instructor during the first weeks of class. The SSD office is located inside the Learning Assistance Center, McKay Library 1st floor.
