I. RATIONALE
The Advance Computer Network course provides a comprehensive exploration of networking concepts and
technologies. It covers Internet architecture, IP addressing, routing protocols (RIP, OSPF, BGP), TCP/UDP, DNS,
and advanced technologies like SDN, 5G, 6G, and IP security. It equips students with hands-on skills for
designing, managing, and troubleshooting modern computer networks.
1. FA-TH represents average of two class tests of 30 marks each conducted during the semester.
2. If candidate is not securing minimum passing marks in FA-PR of any course then the candidate shall be
declared as "Detained" in that semester.
3. If candidate is not securing minimum passing marks in SLA of any course then the candidate shall be
declared as fail and will have to repeat and resubmit SLA work.
4. Notional Learning hours for the semester are (CL+LL+TL+SL)hrs.* 10 Weeks
5. 1 credit is equivalent to 30 Notional hrs.
6. * Self learning hours shall not be reflected in the Time Table.
7. * Self learning includes micro project / assignment / other activities.
VII. SUGGESTED MICRO PROJECT / ASSIGNMENT/ ACTIVITIES FOR SPECIFIC LEARNING / SKILLS
DEVELOPMENT (SELF LEARNING)
Assignment
Explain the basic principles of wireless communication, including the electromagnetic spectrum, frequency
bands, and signal propagation.
Explain the structure of an IPv4 address.Include details on network and host portions, classes (A, B, C), and
reserved IP addresses.
Define the key metrics used in routing (e.g., hop count, bandwidth, delay, cost). Explain the effect of these
metrics on route selection.
Outline the step-by-step process of DNS resolution, from entering a domain name in a browser to receiving the
corresponding IP address.
NA
Note :
Above is just a suggestive list of microprojects and assignments; faculty must prepare their own bank of
microprojects, assignments, and activities in a similar way.
The faculty must allocate judicial mix of tasks, considering the weaknesses and / strengths of the student in
acquiring the desired skills.
If a microproject is assigned, it is expected to be completed as a group activity.
SLA marks shall be awarded as per the continuous assessment record.
For courses with no SLA component the list of suggestive microprojects / assignments/ activities are
optional, faculty may encourage students to perform these tasks for enhanced learning experiences.
If the course does not have associated SLA component, above suggestive listings is applicable to Tutorials
and maybe considered for FA-PR evaluations.
