What you should know
What you should know
Configuring and monitoring the GRF requires that a Network Administrator have experience
with and an understanding of UNIX systems, and the ability to navigate in a UNIX
environment. Knowledge of UNIX, its tools, utilities, and editors is useful, as is experience
with administering and maintaining a UNIX system.
Configuring the GRF requires network experience and familiarity with:
–
UNIX systems and commands
–
IP protocol and routing operations
–
IP internetworking
The Network Administrator must understand how TCP/IP internetworks are assembled; what
interconnections represent legal topologies; how networks, hosts, and routers are assigned IP
addresses and configured into operation; and how to determine and specify route table
(routing) information about the constructed internetwork(s). Although not required, a
high-level understanding of SNMP is useful.
