300
Using Oracle, this course concentrates on representing, storing and retrieving data from external storage devices. Learn SQL and software development using Oracle's Application Express. Three one-hour lectures and one two-hour laboratory per week.
As a continuation of
CS 310, students will analyze, design, implement, test, and present a database project (using Oracle Apex). Lectures and laboratory each week.
Students will explore general network and server security issues through, in part, the implementation of Active Directory Services (ADS) in a Microsoft Server environment. Emphasis will be on security, backup, user administration, disk management, and network access. In addition to learning those skills students will be expected to maintain their server as a functional server throughout the course and to implement the security associated with protecting their server (and as an extension, organizations) from growing sophisticated physical and cyber attacks.
The class covers the OSI and TCP/IP models of communication and IP addressing. Emphasis is on local area network (LAN) designs and technologies like cabling, Ethernet and switching. Basic routing concepts are also covered. Labs involve building and configuring your own networks to generate and observe traffic and network behaviors. The labs use primarily Cisco equipment and track Cisco CCNA certification standards.
This the second in the 2 course sequence on data network transmission technologies. The class covers advanced routing protocols such as OSPF, IS-IS, MPLS and BGP as well as supernetting, IPv6 addressing and audio and video transmission and issues like QOS (quality of service) and multicasting. The class also focuses on ISP and wide area technologies (WAN) such as T carrier, Sonet, frame-relay, ATM and ISDN. Labs emphasize building and debugging complex networks and track Cisco CCNP certification content.
Prerequisite: CS 330, Cisco CCNA certification or consent of the instructor.
