Description

This course’s goal is to teach you some of the most important computer networking concepts, but also provide practical, real-life scenario labs & guide you through configuring those successfully. Some of the labs come from CCNA, but they’re mostly original topologies I created for my Computer Networking students. They were very successful so I decided to post them on Udemy as well. Hope you will find them useful and feel free to send ideas on additional labs I might add!
