Introduction
This five-day instructor-led course provides students with the knowledge and skills to implement and manage a Microsoft Windows® Server 2003 network infrastructure. The course is intended for systems administrator and systems engineer candidates who are responsible for implementing and managing server networking technologies. These tasks include implementing routing; implementing and managing Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Domain Name System (DNS), and Windows Internet Name Service (WINS); securing Internet Protocol (IP) traffic with Internet Protocol security (IPSec) and certificates; configuring a network access infrastructure by configuring the connections for remote access clients, and managing and monitoring network access.
This is the fourth course in the Systems Administrator and Systems Engineer track for Windows Server 2003, and it is the final course in the Systems Administrator track.
Audience
This course is intended for individuals who are employed as or seeking employment as a systems administrator or systems engineer.
