| Welcome to the MCSE Training Kit—Microsoft Windows 2000 Network Infrastructure Administration. This book will teach you how to plan your network infrastructure around features supported by Windows 2000. Issues such as network protocol and services are introduced and compared based on the requirements of your organization. This includes using the Internetwork Packet Exchange/ Sequenced Packet Exchange (IPX/SPX)-compatible protocol to integrate with Novell NetWare. The primary focus of network protocols throughout this book is Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) because it is the Internet-standard protocol and is the best choice for enterprise networks. You will learn how to utilize, manage, and configure the TCP/IP protocol and use features such as NetBIOS, WINS, DHCP, and DNS. You will also learn how to configure, manage, and troubleshoot routing and remote access, including setting up virtual private networks (VPNs).
This book was developed for information technology (IT) professionals who need to design, plan, implement, and support Microsoft Windows 2000 on enterprise networks, or who plan to take the related Microsoft Certified Professional exam 70-216. |
