Practical BGP Workshop
RCCE students will learn network protocols, traffic analysis, firewall configurations, intrusion detection, segmentation strategies, and network forensics. RCCE students will learn to analyze network traffic at all layers, configure and manage defensive infrastructure, investigate suspicious network activity, and design resilient network architectures that limit attacker lateral movement. This practice-intensive course emphasizes applied skills through lab exercises, real-world scenarios, and production-realistic workflows. Building on core knowledge, RCCE students will learn by doing, building muscle memory and practical confidence through repeated hands-on engagement. Students complete exercises that mirror actual workplace tasks, ensuring skills transfer directly to their professional roles.
