UE Advanced networking

The purpose of the lecture is to give you more knowledge and skills in the domain of computer networking. Both theoretical and practical knowledge will be acquired.

Content:

1. Routing:
   • at Layer 2 - Spanning Tree Protocol
   • internal routing (RIP, OSPF)
   • external routing (BGP)
2. Congestion control:
   • fairness
   • AIMD algorithm
   • TCP variants (Reno, Cubic, BBR)
3. Quality of Service:
   • token bucket, scheduling
   • MPLS
4. Case study
   • Next Generation Data Center Architecture

Students should have taken the basic computer networking course.

- Routing (RIP, OSPF, BGP) - Congestion control - Quality of service - MPLS - SNMP - Case study Next Generation Data Center Architecture

The lecture is a follow-up of the basic computer networking course and provides a more detailed view on routing protocols, congestion control, and Quality of Service. Lab exercises and manipulations will provide some practical knowledge of advanced protocols.
