Module content:
Protocols traditionally play a key role in communications technology. They are regarded as central components of the software used in communications devices. Protocols are standardized procedures and rules for exchanging data between communications systems. They include descriptions of the interfaces, data formats, timing and error-correction procedures.
 
The following protocol standards will be dealt with in detail:
1.        Routing protocols
2.        SNMP
3.        SIP
4.        RADIUS
5.        H.323
6.        SS7
7.        SCCP, ISUP, TCAP, INAP
8.        SS7 in mobile networks
