Automation has continually pushed corporate information into an electronic format. Many users can access this information over a network, and the network becomes more important as more information is made available on it. As part of the Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE) program, Microsoft includes an exam on networking essentials. This is done to ensure a minimum level of knowledge on the subject among MCSEs.
In response to the needs of individuals studying for this exam, Certification Insider Press' MCSE Networking Essentials Exam Cram was developed by Microsoft Certified Trainers to help readers of varied experience levels gain the knowledge necessary to pass the Networking Essentials exam. Key technical topics covered include: OSI model, network hardware and topology, data transmission and network protocols, network and Internet names, remote access and security, and hardware and protocols used for Wide Area Networks.
