| 1. | The goal of the VPN assignment is to provide basic operation of the IPSEC: the exchange of keys and encryption of the transmission. | Network security, SSH with Public Key Authentication | IPsec |
| 2. | The goal of the BGP-task is to provide a deeper idea how exterior gateway protocols work in practice. The material contains the usage of BGP for controlling the incoming traffic in multi-operator environment. During the task, a network composed of five routers and four operators, is being configured and different traffic-controlling tests are being applied. | BGP | |
| 3. | Use-cases and configuration of IPv6 in a lab environment are practiced. | Differences of IPv4 and IPv6. | |
| 4. | Cloud and distributed storage topics are considered - networked file systems, redundancy and fault-tolerant storage. | Software systems, file systems. |
