It's a network world
I advocate people take CCNA to get the networked foundation first. Then if servers interest them other than networking invest in MS/Novell/Linux/Unix certs to suit. Looking at the posts on the MS vs Cisco boards there is a trend.. Cisco = 167254 MS = 95243 My numbers might be off as I took a stab at it anyway..seems… -

Re: It's a network world
I will take issue with the last sentence there. Simply because a network CAN become very complex doesn't mean that it should or that the existence of complexity is an indicator of a well designed network. Most enterprise networks needn't be very complex to run efficiently. I also find it irritating that the suggestion that… -

Re: It's a network world
Every server guy really has to know a lot of networking in order to do his/her job effectively. Used to be that the opposite was not true for the network guys. I remember when I first got certified CCNA we were learning about ACLs and applying them in routers and switches. I asked how this would effect MS Exchange etc. I… -

I guess you could go with static routes, but that's not a very good idea. The CCNA teaches you how to set a simple network like this up. And I won't even get started on turning… -
Re: It's a network world
+1000! I've had the pleasure throughout my career to work on both sides of this ... continental divide. Literally, the networking guy will say it's something wrong with the server, and the server guy will always say its the network (mind you, neither side has done any troubleshooting yet to confirm anything?! ... it's just… -

Re: It's a network world
I've seen you say this a few times, and I have to respectfully disagree. "It's a networked world" is, frankly, a platitude. It's no more logical an argument than "become a certified electrician; all computers and networking equipment run off electricity" or "learn assembly; all systems run on assembly code". The fact of…
