Computer Networks

This document provides an overview of a university course on computer networks. The course aims to help students understand layered network models, different network topologies and protocols. It covers topics such as data link layer protocols, MAC layer protocols, routing protocols, IP addressing, transport layer protocols, and application layer protocols. The course outcomes are that students will be able to explain network reference models, classify multi access protocols, determine routing algorithms, classify IP schemes, and propose transport protocols for scenarios. The course is divided into 5 units covering topics like the OSI and TCP/IP models, physical layer, data link layer, medium access sublayer, network layer, transport layer, and application layer.
