The Computing Technology Industry Association (CompTIA) has announced changes to the CompTIA Network+ program and the release of a new CompTIA Network+ exam, the N10-004 exam to reflect current developments in data and communications networks. The updated CompTIA Network+ exam places more emphasis on network security and wireless networking, while still focusing on implementing, maintaining, managing and troubleshooting a network. In addition, the successful candidate must be able to describe various networking technologies; understand basic network design principles; understand the various network wiring standards; and use the proper network diagnostic and testing tools.
The old N10-003 Network+ exam will be retired at the end of July 2009 and will be replaced by the N10-004 exam.
