self-study, Overview of my subject area (Task 9)

My subject is about computer networking, the aim is to have a better understanding of the networks in the present and uture forms. It is of a big importance because networks are the physical support of internet, which is becoming an indenspensable tool.

The masters is devided into 3 main stages, the 1st one is about switching and routing devices, broadband networks and communication systems.

the second stage introduces the research methodes and go deeper in the routing and switching. The last stage is a personal communication dessertation.

The main coming development in the computer networking, is the move from in the addressing system IPv4 to IPv6. this is due to the increasing number of hosts which is pushing the limites of the IPv4.

A useful website is CISCO.NETACAD.NET, where it is possible to access the CCNA or the CCNP materials, they are for an extreme importance in the subject area.
