Description
OT Networking Fundamentals. This course teaches the basic concepts and practical skills needed to set up, connect, and troubleshoot industrial networks in manufacturing environments in a simple language. Understanding how these networks work is a valuable skill for engineers and technicians in the modern manufacturing environment. This course introduces the fundamentals of operational technology networking and provides practical knowledge for building, connecting, and troubleshooting real-world systems in the factory. Starting with the basics, the course examines the factors that affect network performance, and participants learn how industrial equipment exchanges data and how they fundamentally differ from traditional IT networks. Each lesson builds on the previous lesson and uses clear explanations, visual tools, and hands-on labs to effectively convey concepts. By the end of the course, the learner will be able to connect a laptop to an industrial device, interpret IP and MAC addresses, and diagnose the most common communication problems in operational technology environments. This training is based on real industry experiences and moves away from pure theory to build the confidence needed to design and maintain small networks. It also provides a good foundation for more advanced topics such as VLANs, NAT, and configuring managed switches.
