Frequently asked questions
What are the basics of computer networking?
The basics include how devices communicate using the OSI and TCP/IP models, how IP addresses and subnets work, how switches forward traffic within a network and how routers connect networks. You also need core services such as DHCP and DNS, and basic security. Bodhih's program covers each of these with hands-on labs.
Does this networking training help prepare for CCNA?
The program covers many topics found in associate-level networking certifications such as Cisco's CCNA, including IP addressing, switching, routing, wireless, security and automation basics. It helps teams prepare by building practical skills. Bodhih does not deliver the vendor exam itself, and exam-specific practice can be added on request.
Is subnetting still important to learn?
Yes. Subnetting remains essential for designing networks, configuring cloud virtual networks, writing firewall rules and troubleshooting connectivity. Engineers who understand it make fewer addressing mistakes. The program includes dedicated practice with realistic scenarios, so participants can subnet quickly and accurately rather than relying only on online calculators.
Do participants get hands-on lab practice in networking training?
Yes. Labs use network simulators or emulators, and can use physical equipment where the client provides it. Participants configure switches and routers, build VLANs, set up routing and troubleshoot faults. For live virtual delivery, labs run on cloud-hosted or locally installed simulators, so every participant can practise individually.
Who should attend an IT networking course?
It suits network engineers, system integrators, IT support staff moving into networking, and graduate engineers joining operations teams. Cloud and security engineers also benefit, because both fields depend on networking knowledge. Participants should have a basic IT background. Bodhih adjusts the depth to the group after a short needs analysis.
