KENET provides training services to its member institution to enable them improve on their campus network and efficiently utilize the services offered by KENET.ENET has developed a training model that is effective in building skills for the member institutions systems and network administrators and also for building the capacity of the KENET technical Staff as well as ICT Managers. The KENET hands on residential training focuses on the following areas:
Systems Administration
This training is designed to empower systems administrators with skills to administer Unix/Linux.
Network Management & Monitoring
This training is designed to empower the network administrators from the various institutions with skills that will enable them to effectively manage their campus networks. This enables them to ensure the bandwidth they have subscribed to is being used appropriately as well as mitigating the threats and profiling traffic relating to viruses, spam, peer-to-peer traffic and malware.
After this training the participants are able to install, upgrade, operate and secure a Unix/ Linux operating system and use it to provide essential Internet services. This course targets persons who are technically competent but have no prior experience to Unix/Linux.
Campus LAN & WLAN Design
The Scalable Campus Network training equips participants with the practical skills that enables them design and implement a large scale campus network. This course provides the engineers with the necessary TCP/IP skills to design, implement and administer a campus network as well as both knowledge and skills on switching and routing networks.
During the course, participants are taught skills that include virtual private networks (VPNs), virtual local area networks (VLANs), spanning tree protocol (STP), Internet Protocol (IP) routing & management (addressing, IP subnets) amongst others. Finally, troubleshooting methodologies are also handled so as to equip participants with the basic flow of events when troubleshooting campus network problems.
Scalable Campus Wireless LAN design
This training imparts practical knowledge to the participants in the area of design, implementation and security of a large scale campus wireless local area network (WLAN). The course provides the network administrators with the necessary TCP/IP skills to administer a campus wireless network. The network administrators are be able to design and administer a large scale campus wireless network upon successful completion of the course.
Cyber Security
Security within the campus network has become an area that the network and system administrators need to focus more on. The cyber security training focuses on empowering the system administrators on how to secure the services and servers within the campus and also empower the network administrators on how to secure the campus network. This training enables the network and system administrators run secure services within the campus network.
