Articles

I’ll be creating articles focused on CCNA-required material, particularly tackling difficult topics for beginner network engineers. My goal is to explain these concepts in a simpler, more approachable way and make the articles convenient and enjoyable to read.

Introduction to STP

Learning Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) I found how important this concept is for layer 2 switching of the redundancy concept. Beginning network engineers should not overlook or misunderstand this fundamental topic, even though PVST+, RPVST+, or MSTP protocols are the only ones found on Cisco modern switches.

Explained OSI Model

The OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) model is a conceptual framework used to understand how different networking technologies interact and communicate with each other. It divides the networking process into seven distinct layers, each with specific functions and responsibilities.

Introduction to Cables

A couple of articles about networking wiring. I will attempt to describe the fundamental cable technology. 

Differences between Router and Switch

It may be difficult for someone who is new to networking to understand the differences between routers and switches. For more advanced users, it is natural and fundamental, but for beginners, it is not as simple.

Troubleshooting with Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP)

Troubleshooting in networking refers to the process of identifying and resolving problems or issues that occur in a network. This involves identifying the root cause of the problem, isolating the affected area, and taking corrective action to restore normal network functionality.

Introduction to CIDR

CIDR (Classless Inter-Domain Routing) was the primary improvement implemented to address the limitations of classful addressing. Here's a breakdown of how the CIDR method works.

Introduction to VLANs

VLANs are logical segmentation of a network that allows for separate broadcast domains within the same physical network, increasing network performance and improving security.

More Content Coming Soon

As much as I’m excited to share my learning journey, the frequency of posts depends on my availability. Balancing my professional work and networking hobby can be challenging, but I’m committed to keeping this blog active and engaging.
