Added a couple of new pieces of hardware to my homelab this week; a Dell PowerEdge R710 and a Dell PowerConnect 2824 1GB Switch. I’ll be installing CentOS 7 on it to begin my Linux+ and Red Hat Certification studies.
CCNA in 60 Days – maybe not…
Now that I’ve picked up a Microsoft cert using a desktop technology, I am moving to learn more about networking to continue building a strong knowledge base. I originally intended to begin my CCNA studies using the CCNA in 60 days method (buy the book here). However, I do not like to rush myself to learn a technology, or concept; I’m learning, not cramming to pass. There’s a big difference to me. So, while I’ll be reading it to supplement my studies, I’ll only be using it as such.
