What ever section you have Windows Server listed would likely be appropriate....I wouldn't lose sleep over it as long as you have it listed.

Thats software....

I have my skills part divided by Systems & Software. I don't put hardware on there, because its way too much to name, even tho the software I know is a ton as well.

Thanks for the help. One last question. For the job I'm applying for, it mentions this in it.........

"Basic understanding of Firewalls, Switches, VLANs, DMZs, IDS/IPS, routing, ports, NAT, DNS, SMTP Gateways, and Monitoring Tools required "

So the 'basic understanding', does that mean actual hands on experience or just that you understand what they are and what they do? For example, I know what an IDS/IPS does but I've never had hands on experience.

since they put "basic" I would assume they are just making sure you know what one is and what its function is.

That's your cue to download Snort and PfSense...do this, watch a few Youtube videos, run through a few tutorials, and in 6-8 hours you are light years ahead of where you were previously and have actionable discussion items regarding network/systems security configuration.
