Course overview
The main objective of the course is to provide fourth-year students with advanced knowledge of the computer networking and security for general problem solving. Students are introduced to virtual network environment, Microsoft Windows Server, DNS Server, Active Directory, DHCP Server, File Server, OpenSSH Server, Remote Desktop Service and Hypervisor. The course is accompanied by a mandatory laboratory in which the participants apply – in series of tasks – what they have learned in the course in order to deepen their understanding of the concepts and techniques.
Participants in piloting
The course is obligatory in the 4th year of Engineering’s Degree of the Department of Information and Communication Engineering (DICE) of the Institute of Technology of Cambodia. Approximately 50 students are engaged in the course.
Use of ALIEN services and tools
The course has a weekly laboratory work that takes place in the computer labs of the Department of Information and Communication Engineering. The laboratory part of the configuration of DNS Server, Active Directory, DHCP Server, File Server, OpenSSH Server, Remote Desktop Service and Hypervisor are based on problem-based learning and is performed on Microsoft Windows Server. It involves analyzing the requirements of problems which are to be solved in a virtual network environment by simulation a server with multiple client computers to access and use the services form the server.
