Title: Explain the basics of network theory and concepts.
Course: Cybersecurity Systems Technology, Advanced (10109-IV) > Section: Applying Industry Standards, Practices, and Network Theory

Explanation should include the following:

- Encapsulation/de-encapsulation
- Modulation techniques
  - Multiplexing
  - De-multiplexing
  - Analog and digital techniques
  - Time Division Multiplexing (TDM)

- Numbering systems
  - Binary
  - Hexadecimal
  - Octal
  - Dotted Decimal

- Broadband/baseband
- Bit rates vs. baud rates
- Sampling size
- Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)
- Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) and Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA)
- Carrier detect/sense
- Wavelength
- TCP/IP suite
  - ICMP
  - UDP
  - TCP
  - Collision

Process/Skill Questions:

- What is encapsulation, and how does it relate to network traffic?
- What methods are used to prevent a collision on the network?
