Akademik Dersler - İçerik

Defines the fundamental network concepts.
EN: Describes the components of the Internet (end systems, routers, connection media) and the TCP/IP layer model.
EN: Lists the main application layer protocols (HTTP, DNS, SMTP) and their basic functions.
EN: Defines the IPv4 and IPv6 addressing structure, CIDR notation, and private addresses.
Explains and interprets concepts
EN: Compares packet switching and circuit switching, explaining differences in terms of delay, loss, and efficiency.
EN: TCP'nin üç aşamalı el sıkışma sürecini, akış kontrolünü ve bağlantı sonlandırmasını açıklar.
EN: Explains the DNS resolution process (recursive and iterative queries) and the role of caching.
EN: Distinguishes routing from forwarding and compares the data plane with the control plane.
Uses knowledge in concrete situations
EN: Calculates transmission, propagation, and queuing delays for a given network topology and determines total end-to-end delay and throughput.
EN: Develops a simple client–server application using the TCP socket programming API.
EN: Applies CIDR subnetting to divide an IP address block into subnets and constructs a routing table.
EN: Traces the step-by-step communication process between two nodes on the same subnet using Ethernet framing and the ARP protocol.
Relates the components of Network concepts
Analyzes reliable data transfer protocols (rdt 1.0–3.0, GBN, SR) and justifies when each becomes insufficient.
Analyzes TCP congestion control mechanisms (slow start, congestion avoidance, fast recovery), computes AIMD behavior, and estimates throughput.
Applies Dijkstra's and Bellman-Ford algorithms on a given graph to construct shortest-path tables and compares the complexity of both algorithms.
Analyzes the output of a network monitoring tool (e.g., Wireshark) to identify protocol layers, header fields, and data flow.
Makes judgments and comparisons
Evaluates BGP and OSPF in terms of policy flexibility, scope, and convergence speed, and defends which should be preferred in a given scenario.
Assesses the limitations of IPv4/NAT architecture and argues for the necessity of IPv6 migration with concrete technical justifications.
Decides whether TCP or UDP should be used based on application requirements (latency, reliability, bandwidth) and defends the choice.
Designs and produces something new
Produces a comprehensive small-scale network design including a subnetting plan, routing tables, and justified protocol selections.
Designs OpenFlow flow table rules using SDN data plane concepts to enforce specific traffic policies.
