Wide Area Network WAN and Internet.

The system must study all the problems related to technologies, standards, equipment and
applications concerning the connection networks in 'geographical' environments (WAN), the
TCP/IP network and Internet. Objectives: Training of an installation and maintenance technician
for WAN Networks and Internet, able to:‐ know the principles, the standards and the devices
that are normally used in WANs‐ install private WANs and Internet access systems‐ program
and configure the devices for accessing WANs (routers)‐ maintain, troubleshoot and test
