My CCNA Story

Welcome to my networking blog, where I created a little space to share my personal experience of preparing for the CCNA exam.

Networking Dreams. From novice to CCNA certified.

Hi there! Welcome to my blog—a space dedicated to exploring the fascinating world of networking and cybersecurity. My name is Raf, and I’m deeply passionate about understanding how networks work, keeping them secure, and sharing that knowledge with others.

Recently, I embarked on a challenging yet rewarding mission: preparing for the CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate) exam. For those unfamiliar, the CCNA is a globally recognised certification that proves your expertise in networking fundamentals, including routing, switching, and security concepts. It’s a milestone for anyone serious about a career in networking, and I’m excited to share every step of this journey with you.

Connect, Learn and Understand: CCNA Lab

I believe in learning by doing. This lab is designed to be interactive and engaged, allowing me to perform experiments, make mistakes (in a safe environment), and solidify my understanding.

I perform physical lab using Cisco switches and routers and virtual lab playing with VMware, PnetLab and Packet Tracer.
