University: Iowa State University - Ames, IA We are using OPNET for: Teaching with OPNET: In the Business Telecommunication As part of the MIS program’s continuing commitment to our students’ development, the MIS faculty has worked with the College’s IT support staff to develop a truly state-of-the-art telecommunications training lab. At the heart of our telecommunications training is a commitment to powerful simulation environments that allow students to work with significantly more sophisticated systems than are found in more traditional lab environments. To develop network server skills, we utilize a virtual machine environment that allows each student to develop their own full server installation that they can continue to develop as the semester and their skill set progresses. In addition to the continuing access to their own server, the students also have access to a heterogenous set of client machines, which provides them ample opportunity to learn the nuances of managing a heterogenous organizational environment. Based upon a generous donation from Opnet Technologies, we also provide each student with access to ITGuru, a state-of-the-art network simulation package that enables our students to develop and troubleshoot complex networks, as well as learn how to operate an industry-standard software package. |
