  Description
Lecturing The master lectures follow the usual scheme for this way of teaching. We work on competencies CG6, CE32 and CE32 in these master sessions.
Laboratory practical In the labs the students will face several practical sessions—supervised by the teachers—where they will settle the concepts learned in the theoretical classes. In such practicals they will use actual network equipment (routers and switches) and/or virtualization software that will allow their instruction and training on their own. The practicals that the teachers will pose will be designed to be done within the respective face-to-face sessions at the School; although the student will be able to reproduce them at home using free software that will allow to virtualize the network hardware used in the laboratory.

Software to be used: GNS3, netcat, and SSH client and server. It is recommended to use a Linux distribution running on top of the bare hardware.

Also, the teachers may propose optional exercises that the student will be able to do as homework; and review individually in tutorial time. The students should acquire competencies CE30 and CE32 in the lab.
Mentored work A project with a fairly large magnitude will be posed to be developed as a teamwork during all the semester. This practical work might require in its earliest stage to be set in context doing an additional theoretical study/research. Both works will be supervised by the professors with periodic meetings every 10/15 days (roughly). The tutored works are related with competencies CG1, CG4, CE30, CE32 and CT2.
Presentation Every group must deliver the right documents where the suggested challenge (project teamwork) have to be explained in a detailed way. Also, the students must prepare a public presentation of the team solution to be defended in front of the rest of the class. The students practice competence CG4 in the presentations.
