\begin{document}
\maketitle

\begin{slide}{Main Topics in this Subject}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Perl
  \item \SNMP
  \item Network Troubleshooting
  \item Network Design
    \begin{itemize}
    \item \DHCP and \DNS systems
    \item \LDAP directories and querying them
    \end{itemize}
  \item Routing, Route Summarisation
  \end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}{Perl}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item We covered the basics of the language
  \item Refer to the Perl Summary that I wrote
  \item You did two assignments
    \begin{itemize}
    \item \mbox{}{\red{}Revise your work in both of them}
    \end{itemize}
  \item I will provide a copy of the booklet \emph{Perl Reference
      Quide} in the exam (no need to bring your own copy)
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Please return the booklet in the exam
    \item Please do not write in it or mark it
    \item We want to use them again next year
    \end{itemize}
  \item There is {\green{}one question in the exam} on this topic
  \end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}{SNMP}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item There are \emphcolour{two} sets of notes on this topic;
    \begin{itemize}
    \item one (short set) from Albert on the \ISO network management
      model,
    \item one (long set) on the practicalities of \SNMP
    \end{itemize}
  \item You have configured an \SNMP agent in the laboratory
  \item In the lectures you also studied \SNMP version 3
    \begin{itemize}
    \item If I had more time, I would have made some laboratory
      exercises on this topic 
    \end{itemize}
  \item You had a test on this topic.  I suggest that you revise
    this.
  \item \mbox{\green{}There is one question} on this topic in the
    exam
  \end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}{Network Troubleshooting --- 1}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item This is a \emphcolour{new topic}; there are \emphcolour{no
      previouos exam questions} on this topic.
  \item I focussed on the use of Ethereal and \texttt{tcpdump} for
    collecting information about network problems
    \begin{itemize}
    \item However, Ethereal screen dumps don't fit well into an exam
      paper
    \item I wrote additional notes on using \texttt{tcpdump} with \DHCP
    \item So you may use your judgement as to which Ethernet packet
      sniffing tool I refer to in the exam.
    \end{itemize}
  \end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}{Network Troubleshooting --- 2}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item We also examined many uses of such important and commonly
    available basic tools as \texttt{traceroute} (or \texttt{tracert})
    and \texttt{ping}
      \begin{itemize}
      \item Do \emphcolour{not} waste time memorising any lengthy
        formulas; if they are required, they will appear in an
        {\blue{}appendix to the exam}.
      \end{itemize}
    \item We covered many topics in this area, including
      troubleshooting a switched network
    \item Altogether, {\green{}there is one question}
      \emphcolour{directly} on this area, and {\green{}half a
        question} that is \emphcolour{at least partly} on this area
  \end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}{\DHCP and \DNS Management Systems}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item We covered the basics of \DHCP operation
    \begin{itemize}
    \item including normal operation, and
    \item problems that can occur in \DHCP operation
    \end{itemize}
  \item We also studied two schemes for automating \DHCP and \DNS
    management
    \begin{itemize}
    \item One scheme introduced at this Institute, in the Computer
      Centre and our Department,
    \item One fully automated registration scheme involving a web
      registration application to which new users are automatically
      directed
    \end{itemize}
  \item There is {\green{}half a question} \emphcolour{directly} on
    these topics, and {\green{}another half question} that
    \emphcolour{includes} these topics
  \end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}{\LDAP directories and querying them --- 1}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item We covered a number of aspects of \LDAP directories, and
    \begin{itemize}
    \item I provided a laboratory exercise in setting up network
      accounts on a directory server,
    \item But due to insufficient laboratory time, we did not
      work through this in the classroom
    \item That will not be in the exam
    \end{itemize}
  \item However, we covered a few topics in authentication and
    authorisation
    \begin{itemize}
    \item both in the lectures and in the laboratory
    \end{itemize}
  \end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}{\LDAP directories and querying them --- 2}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item I have already told you that:
    \begin{itemize}
    \item an {\blue{}appendix} to the exam paper from \RFC 2254 describes the
      grammar for \LDAP
    \item Another {\blue{}appendix} to the exam paper from \RFC 2255
      describes the grammar for \LDAP \URL{}s.
    \end{itemize}
  \item There is {\green{}one question} on this topic in the exam.
  \end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}{Routing, Route Summarisation}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item Due to the \acro{SARS} epidemic, my planned coverage of this
    area has been reduced, mainly to covering:
    \begin{itemize}
    \item route summarisation and
    \item address block allocation and design.
    \end{itemize}
  \item In particular, we have \emph{not} covered the same areas of
    switching as in the previous year
  \item I suggest that you be guided by the tutorial exercises we do
    in this area.
  \item There is {\green{}half a question} on this topic in the exam.
  \end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}{Format of the Exam (2002--2003)}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item There are \emphcolour{five} questions
  \item There are \emphcolour{no options}---do all five questions
  \item That's good---no need to waste time deciding which one to
    leave out!
  \end{itemize}
\end{slide}


\begin{slide}{Advice for the Exam}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item \emphcolour{Budget your time} wisely in the exam:
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Spend a few minutes to \emphcolour{plan}
      your time
    \item Divide remaining time by five
    \item Do \emphcolour{not} spend more than this time on any one
      question until you have answered five questions fully
    \end{itemize}
  \item {\mbox{}\green{}Show your working}
    \begin{itemize}
    \item A wrong answer with no working gets \emphcolour{zero} marks
    \item A wrong answer with some working that is on the right
      track gets \emphcolour{some} marks
    \end{itemize}
  \end{itemize}
\end{slide}

\begin{slide}{Watch the Subject Web Site}
  \begin{itemize}
  \item I will begin writing \emphcolour{solutions} to past exam
    papers, the test, laboratory exercises and workshops, and
    \emphcolour{post them on our subject web site}
  \item Watch the web site for announcements:
  \item I will write and post \emphcolour{solutions} to problems as
    soon as I can.
  \item I will make a \emphcolour{new icon} to highlight changes on
    the site,
    \begin{itemize}
    \item including solutions to problems as I write them.
