Join Greg Sowell for an in-depth discussion in this video MTA Networking Fundamentals exam, part of Networking Foundations: Network Media (WANs).
- [Voiceover] Microsoft's Network Fundamentals exam, exam number 98-366, is designed to make sure you have a basic understanding of various concepts associated with using, configuring, and supporting modern corporate networks. Passing Microsoft's Network Fundamentals exam is also your first step towards a more advanced Microsoft or network certification. To see how this course aligns with the various sections of the Microsoft Fundamentals exam, check out the handout in the exercise files.

He then covers switches (the devices that connect computers in your building) and routers (devices that control the transmission of network data). Along the way, Greg shows how to build private connections, implement free networking over the Internet, build switch networks, and overlay-routed networks. He'll also introduce different routing protocols, such as OPSF link-state routing and distance-vector routing with RIPv2, EIGRP, and BGP.
Note that this course maps to domains 1 and 2 of the Microsoft Technology Associate (MTA) Networking Fundamentals certification exam (98-366).
