1999 Network Training Workshop For Countries in the Early Stages of Internetworking ~ 13-20 June 1999 ~
NOTE: To help ensure the largest possible pool of qualified applicants, recipients of this e-mail message are encouraged to re-distribute, wherever appropriate, this announcement and application, in its entirety, among developing country professionals and those working with ternational Internet connections.
3.To build robust professional linkages between all participants in the programs so that the mentor-student and colleague-colleague relationships formed during the workshop and conferences will remain strong and of continuing usefulness well beyond the workshop and conference.
4.To increase the level of cooperation among existing projects and activities for establishing public data networks in developing countries.
5.To train people and groups of people who will return to their country and region and who will teach others what they have learned at the workshop.
PROGRAM
An intensive program of instruction is planned for the workshop, composed of four instructional tracks. Participants attend only one of the four tracks, since the tracks run concurrently.
All participants (except those in the National Network Management track) will engage in extensive hands-on training, either setting up a prototype network or using actual Internet resources or both, as appropriate, using the Workshop facilities .
The course descriptions below include for each instructional track:
1. Who should attend the workshop. 2. What you need to know to enter the workshop and benefit from it (Prerequisites). 3. What you will learn in the workshop. 4. What you should be able to do after completing the workshop (Goals).
TRACK 1: Host-based Internetworking Technology ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
WHO SHOULD ATTEND: Technical staff who are operating or installing a TCP/IP based network and providing TCP/IP based services (such as mail, file, web) to end-users. Those are involved in the establishment and/or operation of an Internet presence, possibly initiating the deployment of a basic national network infrastructure in the country.
PREREQUISITES: UNIX use and preferably some UNIX system administration. Some knowledge of, and experience with, computer networks.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: Techniques for design, set up and operation of a TCP/IP network. Knowledge of routing, network troubleshooting, interior routing protocols, domain name system, providing dial-up connectivity, and TCP/IP application servers such as mail and web.
GOALS: To be able to design, set up, and operate a TCP/IP network with a permanent connection to the international Internet, and to provide TCP/IP services to end-users, using primarily PC hardware and Unix.
Based upon the applications received, Track 1 and Track 2 may be combined into a single, Internet Connectivity track.
TRACK 2: Backbone Internetworking Technology ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
WHO SHOULD ATTEND: Technical staff who are now or soon will be building or operating a wide area TCP/IP backbone network, likely with international and/or multi-provider connectivity.
PREREQUISITES: UNIX use and preferably some system administration. Some knowledge of, and experience with, computer networks, preferably TCP/IP-based.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: Techniques for design, setup, and operation of a metropolitan, regional, or national TCP/IP dedicated backbone network
