Course Description
Overview: This is a three-day course that provides an overview of Apache Web Server. It is designed to be instructor-led while facilitated at a pace that is comfortable for the group, using a classroom-delivery learning model with structured and unstructured hands-on activities.This course addresses the evolution of Apache Web Server technology and market dominance, as well as how to build, install, and configure Apache. Web-related issues such as authentication, dynamic Web content, and virtual hosting/administration are included, as are Apache system performance issues (e.g., logging systems, firewalls, and proxies).
Prerequisites: To ensure your success, we recommend you first take the following Element K courses or have equivalent knowledge:
Linux Professional: System Administration
Network+ Certification:
Delivery Method:
Hardware/Software Requirements: You will need:
Red Hat Linux 7.1 Workstation software and compatible hardware for a classroom server.
Apache Web Server software (downloaded from Apache) on disk or classroom network.
Software manuals and software specification information should be available for students.
Student computers should feature at a minimum: the Pentium I class processor, minimum 32 MB RAM (64 or more is recommended), minimum 2.5 GB hard drive (minimum 1.2 GB of unpartitioned disk space), CD-ROM drive (machine should be bootable from the CD-ROM), Red Hat-supported network interface adapter (e.g., 3Com 905x), compatible serial or bus mouse, and color monitor.
Hardware manuals and hardware specification information should be available for students.
Performance-Based Objectives
Lesson objectives help students become comfortable with the course, and also provide a means to evaluate learning. Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
Describe the evolution of Apache Web Server to its current architecture.
Install and configure Apache Web Server to run in a Linux environment.
Configure Apache Web Server for basic user name/password authentication, user access restriction, and security with the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). List Apache Web Server features and advantages.
Configure the Apache Web Server Common Gateway Interface (CGI).
Configure and administer Apache Web Server for virtual hosting.
Use directives to control processes and improve Apache Web Server performance.
Use methods to monitor Apache Web Server transfer logs, error logs, and server information.
Define firewall solutions for network security.
Configure and use the Apache Web Server proxy.
