ITCC 1300
Router and Routing Basics
ITCC 1300 – Router and Routing Basics -- 3 sem. hrs. (2 lecture, 3 laboratory, 0 external hours per week)
Basic router configuration for local area networks. Includes initial router configuration for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), management of router operating systems, configuration files, routing protocols, and access control lists.
TSI Requirement: M3; R3; W2.
Prerequisites: ITNW 1325 – Fundamentals Networking Technologies
Lab Fee: $24.
This course is highly focused on networking technology.
Learning Outcomes:
Configure and manage routers and subnets utilizing the TCP/IP protocol and routing protocols such as Routing Information Protocol (RIP), Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), and Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS); demonstrate backup and restoration router configurations; demonstrate upgrading of router operating systems; configure routers to manage subnets; and create and apply access control lists.

Technology Requirements
Students will be expected to have the knowledge of personal computers and the Internet. The students will use simple tools, cables and connectors, computers, hubs, switches, and routers.
The following list of learning objectives will be addressed in the course.
1. Configure and manage routers and subnets utilizing the TCP/IP protocol and routing protocols such as RIP, OSPF and IS-IS.
2. Demonstrate backup and restoration router configurations
3. Demonstrate upgrading of router operating systems
4. Configure routers to manage subnets
5. Create and apply access control lists
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to perform tasks related to the following:
1. Implement a basic switch and router configuration
2. Understand the modes and features of Cisco Internetworing Operating System (IOS)
3. Describe how and when to implement and verify Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) and trunking, and then implement them on the network
4. Describe situations in which a spanning tree is used, and implement it on the network
5. Describe the application and configuration of inter-VLAN routing for a medium-sized routed network
6. Describe situations in which security is required at Layer 2, and implement it on the network
7. Identify an approach for troubleshooting and isolating common switched network problems, and offer solutions
8. Describe the purpose and types of dynamic routing protocols
9. Describe the operation and implementation of distance vector routing protocols
10. Describe the operation and implementation of link state routing protocols
11. Describe the features of OSPF
12. Describe how OSPF neighbor adjacencies are established
13. Describe the Shortest Path First (SPF) algorithm that OSPF uses
14. Configure a single-area OSPF network
15. Configure a loopback interface to be used as the router ID
16. Verify a single-area OSPF network configuration
17. Use the OSPF debug commands to troubleshoot OSPF
18. Configure load balancing with OSPF
19. Configure authentication for OSPF
20. Describe the operation and configuration of Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), including load balancing and authentication
21. Identify an approach for troubleshooting common EIGRP problems and offer solutions
22. Describe the different types of Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) Access Control Lists (ACLs)
23. Configure and troubleshoot standard and extended, numbered and named IPv4 ACLs
24. Configure and verify static, dynamic, and overloading Network Address Translation (NAT) and identify key show and debug command parameters that are required for troubleshooting NAT and Port Address Translation (PAT)
25. Explain the format of IPv6 addresses and the components that are required to run IPv6, configure IPv6 capability with RIP, and explain the impact that IPv6 has on network routing
26. Describe the uses of Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) for site-to-site and remote-user access
27. Connect to a service provider over a network and describe the operation and configuration of Point to Point Protocol (PPP)
28. Connect to a service provider over a network and describe the operation and the basic configuration of Frame Relay
29. Identify an approach for troubleshooting common Frame Relay problems and offer solutions
Student Contributions
Attendance and punctuality are critical for successful progress in this course. Each student is expected to study two hours outside of class for each hour in class, take an active role in lectures, laboratories, participate fully in group activities, and assume a self-directed approach to completing class work and home work.
Your performance will be evaluated by satisfactory mastery of the learning objectives listed above. Chapter exams and a comprehensive final exam will be given during the course. The point system below will be used to determine your grade:
All regular exams 300 points (3 exams 100 points per exam)
Laboratory work 10 points per lab
Final exam 100 points
After your numerical grade has been calculated, your letter grade will be determined as a percentage of points possible:
A 90–100% B 80–89% C 70–79% D 60–69% F less than 60%
Plagiarism, the representation of someone else's work as your own, or cheating on an examination will not be tolerated. Either case will result in a grade of zero on work or examination in question. Two or more infractions will be reported to the Dean of Instructional Services for disciplinary action.
Laboratory assignments are imperative. Students must turn in completed assignments by appropriate deadlines.
Attendance will be taken during each class meeting.
Safety will follow general safety practices.
Any student with a documented disability needing academic adjustments is requested to speak directly to the Counseling Department (see below) as early in the semester (preferable within the first week) as possible. All discussions will remain confidential.
