CompTIA Linux+ Course

CompTIA Linux+ validates the competencies required of an early career system administrator supporting Linux systems.

The new CompTIA Linux+ is for the IT professionals who will use Linux to manage everything from cars and smartphones to servers and supercomputers, as a vast number of enterprises use Linux in cloud, cybersecurity, mobile and web administration applications.

If you’re keen to learn the foundational skills and knowledge of Linux systems administration, then the CompTIA Linux+ is the perfect certification for you. With the CompTIA’s Linux+ certification, you’ll get the fundamental skills and knowledge you need to successfully configure, manage and troubleshoot Linux systems. CompTIA Linux+ covers many features in major distributions of Linux, including the Linux command line, basic maintenance, installing and configuring workstations and networking.

For many years, Linux has dominated the server install base in the business world—and it will continue to do so in the foreseeable future, especially as we transition to the Cloud.

This CompTIA Linux course builds on your existing experience with systems operations and administration to provide you with the knowledge and skills required to configure, manage, operate, and troubleshoot a Linux environment by using security best practices, scripting, and automation computing models.

The popularity of Linux has led to a greater need for information technology (IT) professionals who can manage servers that run some form of the Linux kernel and the associated GNU tools that make a Linux distribution.

What you will learn:

• Perform basic Linux tasks.
• Manage users and groups.
• Manage permissions and ownership.
• Manage storage.
• Manage files and directories.
• Manage kernel modules.
• Manage the Linux boot process.
• Manage system components.
• Manage devices.
• Manage networking.
• Manage packages and software.
• Secure Linux systems.
• Write and execute Bash shell scripts.
• Automate tasks.
• Plan and perform a Linux installation.

This course is designed for IT professionals whose primary job responsibility is the management of servers and other devices running the Linux operating system. A typical student in this course should have at least nine months of hands-on Linux experience and at least one and a half years of IT experience in other computing environments.

The target student should wish to expand their skill set to support their career in Linux system administration and operation. This Linux course is also designed for students who are seeking the CompTIA Linux+ certification and who want to prepare for Exam XK0-004.
