Verification scopeSubject name, credits, unit-wise syllabus, and course outcomes are sourced directly from JNTUK's own official R23 course structure and syllabus document, not an autonomous college's adaptation.
What you'll be able to do
Explain computer network types, network topologies, OSI and TCP/IP reference models, and characteristics of guided and unguided transmission media
Analyze data link layer design issues, framing methods, error detection/correction mechanisms, and evaluate sliding-window-based flow control protocols
Compare random, controlled, and channelization MAC techniques and examine the operation and evolution of Ethernet technologies
Apply routing algorithms and congestion-control techniques to analyze the performance of packet-switched networks
Examine IPv4 and IPv6 protocols, addressing schemes, subnetting/CIDR, and internetworking mechanisms such as tunneling and fragmentation
Describe the services of transport and application layer protocols (UDP, TCP, HTTP, DNS, Email) and analyze their operational features including flow, error, and congestion control
