Good network sites???

Bob_the_Goon

Hi all,

Does anyone know of any really good websites for keeping up to date with the ever changing world of networks? I'm currently studying for my CCNA and would like to be able to visit a site/sites for further reading purposes so to expand on my knowledge.

The site may include good guides to TCP/IP, security technologies etc etc as well as current news.

I've googled for sites but it's hard to choose between the good and the bad, so I was just wondering what sites you have found helpful for studying/works purposes.

Cheers in advance.

You can search for any topic, and get a great overview, and it's always being updated by the community.

For example, I keep seeing BGP pop up from time to time in the Cisco threads, and I had no clue what that was. Check out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bgp That page isn't going to get me a CCNP, but it's a great resource, and they provide many links, such as to the RFCs, for further study.

The biggest area to stay current with is security. Sites like http://isc.sans.org/ provide current security advisories. Otherwise, you'd probably be better of just getting a book, CBT, etc. for studying TCP/IP and CCNA material. You probably won't find anything as comprehensive on the internet.

Also, you might want to give this a shot for your CCNA studies: http://www.thebryantadvantage.com/ The new guide was just realized on the 10th.
