CCENT exam this morning, wish me luck
I bought an early expiration ICDN voucher hoping to get my CCENT before I begin my classes @ WGU. The voucher expires on March 4th, so I booked it for today hoping to get my Cisco transcripts into WGU before March 1st (we'll see). I've been studying hard for the past 2 weeks, but I haven't done much of any labbing :S and…

ICMP Question
I have a lame question... I cannot ping between directly connected networks. It's 2811 router with extremely basic configuration. According to my knowledge it should simply work: Router Configuration: NIC Settings: 192.168.10.2 255.255.255.0 192.168.10.1 I can ping 192.168.10.1, but I cannot ping the directed connected…

CCNA DC Harder Than R&S?
Does it not make sense to pursue CCNA DC as a first networking cert? In my current role I consult a lot of clients who leverage UCS, which is why I am interested in this path... but with the lack of strong networking skills I am wondering if it would make more sense to go with R&S? I guess I am having a hard time…

Study Materials for CCNA:Security
I am considering taking the CCNA:S after my CCNA (exam is tomorrow morning). I feel like I have been reading mixed reports regarding books to read for it, as well as other recommended resources to use. Some have said the OCG is worth it, but apparently is super dry. I used the sybex book and testout for the CCNA (plus…

online CCNA training courses?
Hi, I'm looking into the CCNA certification. I'd like to take some type of class to prepare for the certification. I've seen some 5 day bootcamps but I don't think those would be right for me. Right now I'm considering some type of online class such as these two Cisco® CCNA® Certification Training - Online Career Training…

Are there any simulations in the exam?
Are there any simulations in the exam? I'm familiar with the multiple choice, drag-n-drop, etc. questions already. I don't think answering this violates the NDA; not looking for specific information, just exam type questions.

VLAN lab question
A friend of mine (the one who is helping me prepare for the CCENT) brought home two Cisco 2600 Routers and 3 Catalyst 2950 switches for me to do sample labs with. Each day he's had me do a different thing with them, such as set them up as separate networks, configure OSPF, etc. Today's challenge was implementing VLANs on…

Native VLAN config
Hi everyone, What is the difference between "switchport native vlan 999" and "switchport trunk native vlan 999"? It's a 2960 switch on Packet Tracer. I don't have much understanding of VLANs yet, so if you can send me some links which explain VLANs and especially Native VLANs, that would be great! Thanks :)
