Before you start

There are no formal prerequisites for this course or the exam. CompTIA A+, or around a year of hands-on network admin work, will make the material easier to follow. If you are completely new to IT, a fundamentals course first is a good idea. You will get the most from the course if you can practise on a home lab or a test network as you go.

About the N10-009 exam

N10-009 is the current exam for the CompTIA Network+ certification. CompTIA is a vendor-neutral certification body, so the skills apply to network kit from any maker. The exam checks that you can design, set up, run, secure and troubleshoot wired and wireless networks. It has five domains: networking concepts, network implementation, network operations, network security and network troubleshooting. This course follows the same five areas in the same order. Network+ is often the next step after A+ and a common base for security and cloud roles. Check the CompTIA website for current exam details before you book.

Yes. IPv4 addressing is covered across two lessons, and IPv6 is covered as part of network services and addressing.

Which troubleshooting tools are shown in the course?

The course covers a structured troubleshooting method and common tools such as ping, tracert and Wireshark.

Is Network+ tied to one vendor's equipment?

No. CompTIA Network+ is vendor-neutral, so the skills apply to networks built with kit from any maker.

Do I get a certificate?

Yes. You get a StemBoss Certificate of Completion when you finish the course.

Can I get a refund?

Yes, within 14 days if you have completed less than 20% of the course. See our refund policy for details. Read the refund policy.
