Course Overview
The Essential Guide to Understanding TCP/IP Protocols - Network Engineers, DevOps, CCNA, CCNP, Cyber Security
Welcome to TCP Protocol Deep Dive - Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is the standard that enables all modern network infrastructure communication and web-based applications.
Whether you are a network engineer or developer, understanding how TCP works is crucial to your career. The course takes a complex topic and simplifies it with complete coverage of all features.
This is an essential course for network engineers, developers, and certification students.
TCP/IP architecture model is the current standard today for all network communications. In this course you will learn how network protocols and applications work together to send data messages across the internet.
Learn how data messages are sent across the internet
Learn the fundamentals of network communications
Ethernet, ARP, Wireless, IP, TCP, UDP, DNS, HTTPS
Linux and Windows full stack architecture
De facto standard that replaces older OSI model
Learn how a network session starts from client to server, and how TCP bidirectional full-duplex auto-tuning works between endpoints. Identify the effects of protocol delay on network performance and compare latency with throughput. There is also unique coverage of TCP transport layer troubleshooting. It is crucial to understand TCP concepts before attempting to do Wireshark or tcpdump network analysis traces. There is no protocol that affects application performance more than TCP.
This course has a practical approach for network engineers to learn the basics of TCP for troubleshooting, performance analysis, and network security. In fact, TCP is an intersection point for network engineers, software engineers, and security engineers. You will learn concepts such as application ports, congestion control, loss recovery, and troubleshooting.
TCP/IP Reference Model
TCP 3-Way Handshake
TCP 4-Way Termination
TCP Flow Control
Slow Start Algorithm
Sliding Window Operation
MSS vs Path MTU Discovery
Bandwidth Delay Product
Nagle Algorithm
Socket Buffers
TCP Troubleshooting
You will learn how a network session is operational from the physical layer up to and including the application layer. There is an explanation of how applications plug-in to the communications stack as well.

Good topics but some explanation hard to understand, notices some topic diagram need to be correct, like 3 way handshake, in UDP you are showing TCP link, hope would be more clear in future

JJohn Ferguson
Lots of good information overall. Maybe a hands on lab of some kind would help convey it and solidify it. The links the master class stuff were broken too.

The audio sounds like the instructor talks through a voice synthesizer.
