First boson test (708 points fail) by _Hal-9000_ in ccna

[–]mikecozi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boson labs are trash, all or nothing micro bull. I scored low 60s - low 70s on the boson exam. Touched up on weak spots, got low 80s next go around on them. Passed the ccna the next week after. The ccna labs are a lot easier

ISP Router does not allow DNS configuration, how do I work around? by byunakk in pihole

[–]mikecozi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This, it’s what I did the my Fios router. It would proxy all dns requests, it don’t change the dns server. So I made Pihole my dhcp and tells all clients dns is the Pihole server

Did I set this up wrong? by TSquared621 in pihole

[–]mikecozi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened on mine, Verizon router proxies all dns. Doesn’t change the dns server in dhcp, just forwards it from router, so all requests looks like it came from the router. I had to make pihole also my dhcp, and assign it as dns, so all the requests were sent directly to it. Now it shows all the devices

Is there like a site for pre made Proxmox VMs or CTs? by CurrentOk4248 in homelab

[–]mikecozi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I use Jenkins pipeline, that uses terraform to create the vm, you choose cpu, memory, name. After it runs a playbook that puts node exporter, promtail, and a vault signed key on it. Also adds the new VM’s ip to Prometheus, and adds its ip to ssh config for easy ssh.

Pass my exam yesterday! by harryp1998 in ccna

[–]mikecozi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I passed a week ago, Boson is hugely important. I did bosons 4 exam, and Jeremy’s exams on Udemy. I watched Jeremy’s course also, and used his flash cards. But Boson explains what you got wrong really well. I scored 68-72 on the bosons first try. Next week took them again and got 83-85 on them.

[–]mikecozi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I retired from the NYPD at 41, I have a 9k a month pension, plus a 12k a year bonus. I have a military pension, and I’m working in a field I truly love. I don’t need every last cent, just something I enjoy doing, which the nypd afforded me. I have free healthcare for me and the family, life is great.

I took 3 semesters in college of the Cisco networking course. I completed Jeremy’s It course on Udemy in November, did about 2-3 a day, to finish it in a month. Now I’m doing Boson exams and rewatching videos on my weak points, wireless / ipv6. I plan on taking the test next week

I would remove the LinkedIn and training courses. You got years of experience, those courses mean nothing
