70-291: Implementing, Managing, and Maintaining a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Network Infrastructure (MCSE 2003, MCSA 2003 and MCDBA core)

This course provides students with the knowledge and skills to implement, manage, and maintain a Microsoft Windows Server™ 2003 network infrastructure. The course is intended for systems administrator and systems engineer candidates who are responsible for implementing, managing, and maintaining server networking technologies. These tasks include implementing routing; implementing, managing, and maintaining Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Domain Name System (DNS), and Windows Internet Name Service (WINS); securing Internet Protocol (IP) traffic with Internet Protocol security (IPSec) and certificates; implementing a network access infrastructure by configuring the connections for remote access clients; and managing and monitoring network access. After completing this course, students will be able to configure routing by using the Routing and Remote Access service, allocate IP addressing by using DHCP, manage and monitor DHCP, resolve names, resolve host names by using DNS, manage and monitor DNS, resolve network basic input/output system (NetBIOS) names by using WINS, secure network traffic by using IPSec and certificates, configure network access and manage and monitor network access.
