Hey guys! In today's lab you are tasked to create an extended ACL. PC1 should be able to ping both servers. PC2 should only be able to ping the Google server. ✅ When you’re done, post screenshots showing PC1 successfully pinging both servers and PC2 only being able to ping the Google server. Good luck 🚀

Hey! So along my journey to obtain my CCNA, I have come across some resources that have immensely helped me prepare to take my CCNA. I do hope this does not violate any community rules, although if it does, please inform me! The first resource is Jermeys IT Labs. It provides you with extremely detailed hands-on training alongside Packet Tracer. This has been invaluable for me, and it's also available on YouTube. Having the ability to configure routers and switches, assign protocols, configure trunking, and monitor a (simulated) network in real-time has been amazing. While Packet Tracer has its limitations, it's an amazing resource on its own, even more so with Jeremy's IT labs. My second resource has been https://ccna-questions.com/. Another free resource that tests your understanding of things you've learned. I love this as it helps me narrow down what I need to focus on as well as what I have a deeper understanding of. I hope these resources help you on your Journey the ay they are helping me!

While not directly related to CCNA content, Im excited to announce that I have obtained my CompTIA Security+ in addition to my Network+ certification. The reason I announce this is because I came to this group with my Network+ and a goal to pursue my Security+ and my CCNA. I have officially achieved half of that goal and I now look forward to adding the CCNA to my completed list! I've been preparing and I feel like now is the time for execution! Set goals and chase after them!

Hey everyone 👋 I was inactive the past week because I was sick and at the same time very busy helping my wife opening up her own local store. Now I’m back and will provide you with study material as usual! So let’s vote for the next lab topics 👇

So as a newbie (still am) to some of the concepts I asked my self why a business would use different routing protocols (i.e. one department uses OSPF and another uses EIRGP). It sounded like unnecessary confusion but it was really my brain complicating things for me thinking its making simple for me when In reality it was already simplified. Businesses use different routing protocols because different parts of the network have different needs, equipment, or history. Such as legacy equipment that may not be compatible with more contemporary routing protocols, vendor specifications, and even department size. All that said, no one protocol is a end all be all for any network. So understanding the purpose behind them is pivotal to building, maintaining and expanding a network! I'm open to any additions or corrections if I am mistaken! I would hate to give wrong information!
