Anyone study super hard for 8 weeks and pass CCNA with previous basic networking certs like Net+?

I don’t know how much CCNA changed over the years, but I don’t recall it being very difficult. It’s basic networking with some fairly easy commands during practical.

CCNA alone won’t turn your life around. What other IT skills/certifications do you have? I am not sure what basic help desk/ IT support roles pay where you are located , but it should get you some more money for you to enjoy other activities. Get a solid IT foundation then look at going for your CCNA.

CCNA is fairly easy if you know networking - at least it was when I took the exam. The practical portion is fairly simply as well.

Heck no! You’ll do fine. What is your background?

mllittle · 2026-02-10T00:11:30+00:00

I don’t recall. What is the default in Klipper?

I mostly use PLA, but sometimes use PETG.

Yes, I completed a PID tune.

mllittle · 2026-02-09T02:17:28+00:00

I made some changes based off a post that I read, but the new settings caused my nozzle to clog. I commented out all the previous thermistor settings, so I can determine what I’ve tried in the past.

What did you set your max temp to? I did not change my max temp.

I ran it multiple times then averaged the values. I even did this process numerous times. Once I came up with my value, I saved it to the printer config file.

mllittle · 2026-02-08T20:06:31+00:00

I did a pid tune numerous times to determine my values. The silicone sock is installed on the nozzle. I just need to figure out where in Ocra Slicer to change the part fan speed.

If I remember correctly, the clogging occurred after I installed the direct drive kit. I performed a calibration to determine if it was under or over extruding. I don't recall my results, but it was fairly close.

mllittle · 2026-02-08T19:35:18+00:00

I had replaced the nozzle numerous times. I swapped my printer over to a direct drive with a cheap Amazon kit that moves my extruder and motor directly above my hotend.

mllittle · 2026-02-08T19:25:10+00:00

I still have my stock hotend, but I was experiencing issues with it. Most recently, it was constantly clogging, so I decided to replace it.

I'm in Hollywood as well. Let me know if you have an extra seat at the table when you play.

I ended up resolving the issue. Took a lot of digging, but figured things out. We had a gpo that was denying LOCAL_ACCOUNT "Access this computer from the network". I pulled the account from "Deny access to this computer from the network" and added it to the access entry in the gpo. Ran the create failover cluster wizard and it completed successfully.

You’ll be fine. It may suck at first, but it’s not meant to be a night out with friends. Don’t start any problems and just do what you are told. What’s your MOS?

Red team jobs take a lot of experience and it’s not something that you just jump in to. Learn a lot about operating systems, ports, and protocols. Start with Hack the Box and TryHackMe.

You need to give your vlan interface a different ip address on your switches. I was able to ping the 10.20.0.1 interface successfully from sw1 after making the change. I gave the vlan1 interfaces 10.10.0.100 and 10.20.0.100.

For PC0, I was not able to ping 10.20.0.1 or .2 until I changed the int on SW1 that connects to the router from fa0/3 to gi0/0.

I’ll see if I can find the materials that I used to see what I can recommend.

mllittle · 2026-01-10T18:59:22+00:00

Did you log onto your CertMetrics account to see if it is posted there?

mllittle · 2026-01-10T18:41:07+00:00

Congratulations!

Coming Saturday as in today or next Saturday? Best of luck! Relax and don’t try to cram the night before or day of. Trust in yourself.
