During the lab sessions, you will work on a set of small exercises to get hands-on experience of what you have learned during the lecture.

With this course, you will acquire the basic knowledge of the Internet architecture and of its evolution. You will also understand the internals of the Internet protocols. In addition, you will be able to design and code your own TCP/IP applications and protocols and to solve simple configuration and performance problems that may arise in practice.
