This man is a CCIE but still coming back to teach us the fundamentals. We must protect this man at all costs!

[fenrircorps]

Man I sincerely hope you receive all recognition you deserve, you are a great teacher but also a great person!!!

[mdtaylor]

I'm currently in a bootcamp training for CCNA and it's a lot to absorb within a week. I honestly feel too old to learn this stuff but then I follow up with your Udemy course and I can't thank you enough for the way you teach. You just might be the proof that you can teach this old dog new tricks.

[zgbeyz]

thank you so much for taking the time and making the effort to teach the basics of networking, because it's really helping a lot for beginners like me to understand things how they work. And there are not many people in IT who know how to explain things to someone who has no Idea or is a beginner in this field, so again thank you very much David!

[aizazpatel]

David you are my superstar. Started my career in network. Your videos help me a lot. In fact i should say, whatever i have learn till date, is you motivation and from you.
Long live David. May Allah bless you with more in this duniya.

-Great video Professor David ... !!!
-I trained for CCNA with Packet Tracer and GNS3 and also trained with Cisco hardware used ebay style (I bought two Routers and two very old switches).
-So if you have never touched a Cisco Hardware it is nice to have a physical lab before you get certified and go to work, but for the CCNA test the virtualized tools like Packet Tracer and GNS3 are more than enough.
-The only things that in the physical lab were cool was to update the IOS on them when I went to trunk from one switch to the other and it didn't close and that was why the Ethernet interface is old and as there was no Auto MDI-X to automatically invert the Rx and TX on the cable) I had to assemble a "cross cable" that was once something that could happen but nowadays in new production environment hardware it rarely happens, but it was nice to find this error in the troubleshooting, but apart from those details that are much more for the professional routine than for the CCNA test, the physical lab for those who have had contact with real hardware is to spend money unnecessary for CCNA.
-Thanks for the content .... !!!

Extremely useful for us 'do everything' engineers who need specific information! Thank you sir.

[saurabhshrestha]

Back to basics.
Love to see the basics to refresh the basics knowledge.

[jamesnelson]

Perfect timing, I just got a renewed cisco 2911 to mess around with. I'll definitely be using packet tracer but figured it would be good to get my hands on a couple different devices.
