This course covers the foundational networking concepts and TCP/IP protocols required for the CompTIA A+ Core 2 exam, including how data moves across networks and how operating systems connect to and communicate over those networks.
Learners benefit from understanding Ethernet, MAC addressing, IP addressing, subnetting, and the suite of TCP/IP protocols that underpin modern networking — plus the practical OS-level tools used to configure connections and troubleshoot network problems. Hands-on online labs provide experience with real network configuration and diagnostic tasks.
This chapter introduces the fundamentals of local networking and the role of LANs, along with the basics of hexadecimal notation used throughout IT.

When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?
To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
What will I get if I purchase the Certificate?
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
Is financial aid available?
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
