Abstract

The article discusses the role of telecommunication systems and networks in the work of railway transport. The authors analyzed the demand for the transfer of information data today, noted the principles of interconnection and building local networks, displayed the revised and supplemented material of the manuals. The introduction of a large number of information equipment in people's lives has led to a global transformation of the digital space. This is especially noticeable in the railway industry, where highquality and timely transmission of information data plays a paramount role in the transportation process. Due to digital transformation, the need for uninterrupted and highquality sending of information over long distances with minimal losses, the need to introduce theoretical and practical material on modern technologies for information data transmission networks. On the basis of this, an urgent need is revealed for training personnel in the study of network technologies in order to improve the efficiency of the functioning of the railway infrastructure. Therefore, it is more important than ever to transform the educational process, to direct resources to introduce as much network equipment as possible into classrooms for visual acquaintance and study of the main points of packet switching by students of the railway university. The work also presents the progress of the laboratory work on the topic "Static Routing in Packet Switching Networks", which is performed in the Cisco Packet Tracer software network emulator. All the necessary commands used to perform laboratory work by students of a railway university are presented. The laboratory work, in turn, is devoted to the user interface, network configuration, one of the types of routing. It is concluded that by developing an educational program for students to study the work of building packet switching networks, it will be possible to produce a qualified specialist who deeply understands the operation of telecommunications equipment. This is what will improve the network component of railway transport.
