Industrial Ethernet Network Training

While Hirschmann’s unique graphical user interface takes a lot of the complexity out of network configuration, to ensure optimal network performance requires an understanding of network protocols and functions.

Daanet offers a range of standard and customised training courses that start with the basics, and cover the areas of interest, whether that is fundamentals of ethernet, device configuration, troubleshooting, network design, advanced network features or network monitoring.

Gain Practical Skills

Courses are hands-on, providing realistic exercises to provide skills rather than just knowledge. Course attendees complete a brief on-line survey in the week before the course to identify their current capabilities and course expectations, and an exam at the end of the course is used to reinforce learning. Informal quizzes are used throughout each session to summarise key points.

While the exercises are carried out on Hirschmann switches, the network principles are applicable to any vendor’s equipment. Courses suit engineers, technicians and site electricians responsible for network specification, design, configuration, maintenance and diagnosis.
