AIM
To enable the students to develop the necessary skills for developing robust & scalable network applications and to build necessary basic knowledge for managing networks.

OBJECTIVES
•    To learn the basics of socket programming using TCP Sockets.
•    To learn basics of UDP sockets.
•    To develop knowledge of threads for developing high performance scalable applications.
•    To learn about raw sockets.
•    To understand simple network management protocols & practical issues.
