Networking Course

IP Services Every Engineer Should Know

IP Services Every Engineer Should Know covers the essential network services that support the proper functioning of devices, applications, and end-user connectivity across an infrastructure. It introduces key services such as DHCP, DNS, NAT, HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, TFTP, Telnet, and SSH, explaining their purpose, operational behavior, and how they appear in real-world network environments. Learners gain clarity on why these services exist and how they contribute to core network operations, from IP address assignment and name resolution to secure remote management and data transfer. The course also blends theory with practical examples, including configuration and verification scenarios, to strengthen applied understanding. It equips network administrators and engineers with the foundational knowledge needed to effectively troubleshoot common issues related to connectivity, DNS resolution, addressing, translation, and secure administrative access.

Keith Bogart

Course Instructor

Keith started his networking career as customer service representative at Cisco Systems in 1996. His desire to learn more soon led him to a position as a Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) engineer on the “Dial-Access” team, and within six months he had obtained his Dial-ISP CCIE. He later became a network consulting engineer and obtained his CCNA certification while teaching the technologies to Cisco employees during his lunch breaks. Keith was the first instructor on Cisco’s TAC Training team, where he taught a wide range of internetworking topics and later developed and taught other courses such as routing protocols, LAN switching, MPLS, 802.1x, and CCNA. After almost 17 years with Cisco, Keith joined a small startup and focused on 802.11 Wi-Fi technologies, during which time he obtained his CWNA certification. He is now very happy to be working as an instructor for Routing & Switching. Keith lives in Raleigh, North Carolina, with his wife, son, and daughter. When he is not teaching Bootcamps, Keith can be found at home with his family, reading, or working in the yard.
