Worth Getting Network+

STP / Portfast
Been reading up on STP and Portfast. Is it not trunk ports only between switches that take part in STP? If so, why do we have portfast on access ports? Do these ports also go through the listen, learning stages? I've not fully grasped STP yet so apologies if this comes across as a daft question.

Squeaked by ICND2 today with 846 (passing was 825)
Finally, after about 4-5 months and another 6 months or so with working on ICND1...I'm a CCNA. It feels great! Just wish I could have gotten a little closer towards 900. I had a 950 on ICND1 so I set my standards high. I feel it was also a much easier test (the ICND1) and I had about 25 minutes left when I finished. ICND2…

Is the "Biggest subnet first" rule very critical
Hi In my first CCNA skills test I was asked to divide a /24 subnet into /30 and /27 subnets.
