Linux for Unix Administrators

Prerequisites:

Students should already be experienced Unix administrators. Fundamentals such as the Unix command line and how to edit files will not be covered in class. A good understanding of network concepts, the TCP/IP protocol suite, and basic Unix security is also assumed. The accelerated pace of this class makes it more difficult for unprepared students to keep up.

Less experienced students are encouraged to instead take the “Linux Fundamentals”, “Enterprise Linux Systems Administration”  or “Enterprise Linux Networking
Services”.
