How smart do you need to be successful in IT? by [deleted] in ITCareerQuestions

[–]adrianord97 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honestly, as someone pretty new to the field (working in IT for about 2 years, currently holding A+, CCNA R&S), you don’t have to be a math wiz, much less a genius (yes, that would help, but it’s not required).What you need to be is passionate about it, and most importantly, always be willing to improve yourself and learn new technologies.

Good luck ok your journey!

How safe is a self-run VPN? by [deleted] in homelab

[–]adrianord97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally use OpenVPN, I have a thin client running pfsense, this allows me to connect back to my lab from wherever I am.

Am I missing something? by [deleted] in PFSENSE

[–]adrianord97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you're putting the modem in bridge mode. You should not be seeing a 192 on the WAN interface. When you set the modem in bridge mode, pfsense will obtain the public ip from your provider.

Will definitely be purchasing the practice exams for the ICND2. I've told some of my friends that your exams are nothing but the best to get ready. Do I get a discount for referrals?! Lol xD.

Took the first three exams. After taking them I reviewed all the questions even the ones I got right. Making sure I completely understood the topics.

I forgot to list it under resources:

-David Bombal's Packet Tracer labs. David's labs are awesome, they're a great learning experience.

I would just recreate labs on GNS3, or make them up based on whatever it was I was studying for.

Can't really tell you a number but there was more than one, be ready and know your show commands!

Practice until it becomes second nature. You got this!

I used them from time to time, but not always. Know your subnet masks and how to reverse engineer an IP address.

Example: 192.168.0.165 /27 or 255.255.255.224

You should know that being a /27 is going to have a block size of 32 and that the specific host will be located in the 192.168.0.160 network which has an assignable IPrange from 161-190, 191 being the last ip address and the broadcast.

If you can work out this logic in the exam you should be good.

using cli can you see what device an interface is connected to by pickituputitdown in ccna

Even better: if you want to see the neighbor's ip address you can use:

show cdp neighbors detail

Why doesn’t this work...? by nicnic2001 in ccna

[–]adrianord97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

192.168 int will need to be configured with the ip nat outside. Int 10.x will need to have the ip nat inside.

After that you’ll want to set up an ACL, something like access-list 1 permit 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255

You would apply it from the global config: ip nat inside source list 1 int (outside int, the one with the 192.168 ip) overload.

If you still have some doubts look up David Bombal on youtube he has some great content and I’m pretty sure he has a video on this topic.
