Undervisningens placering:
Campus Ballerup
Undervisningsform:
50% of the time will be used by lectures and discussions which
will cover the theoretical aspects.
The practical part will fall in two parts: workstation installation
and set-up will be done individually whereas server building will
be done as a course assignment in groups of up to three students.
The course will conclude with the submission of a report on the
course assignment.
To give the student sufficient theoretical and practical
understanding and knowledge to design and implement a small TCP/IP
local network, including a server of own choice, connected to the
Internet using PCs and VM's running Linux as the platform for
both workstations and servers.
At the end of the course the student shall demonstrate the ability
to:
A
1. Operate Linux from the command line.
2. Describe the Linux file system, including the protection system
3. Perform simple system administrator task such as user
administration, access control, etc.
B
4. Create and maintain a log book for the server.
5. Identify the possible threats to the security of a workstation
and a server.
6. Specify and implement proper countermeasures to the identified
threats.
7. Specify and implement methods to ascertain the continuing
operation of the server in spite of e.g. power failures, planned or
otherwise.
8. Describe the protocol(s) applicable to the chosen server
9. Discuss the pros and cons of the chosen server relative to
similar servers.
10. Demonstrate the proper operation of the server (testing)
Objective group A (which is evaluated in the practical session)
must be achieved satisfactorily by itself (i.e. to at least 02) in
order for the other objectives to be evaluated at all.
If objective group A is passed, grades are given as follows:
2. for the accomplishment of objectives 1, 2 and 3.
7 for the additional accomplishment of objectives 8, 9 and 10
12 for the additional accomplishment of the remaining objectives.
Otherwise the whole course is failed.
