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!
