Study Session Number 10! OSPF Labbing and Studying! #11

Hi Everyone! 

Today will be spent labbing and using ospf, just want to really cement the concepts of it into my brain and I always believe the best way to remember something is to practice, practice, practice! I've also started to use cheat sheets for topics, I'm finding them alot more readable as the information is condensed into what you need to know about the topic rather than overloading on every inch of the topic. As it is just now the current study method that I'm following is a three-step process of - learn, practice, teach (In my case I have no one to teach so my dog will be a master of ospf by the end of this ;p), so far this three step process is working just struggling to remember all the in's and outs of OSPF, regardless after today I'm moving onto a different topic as I've spent the past 3-4 days just on this and I really need to be getting on, if I still dont properly remember everything ill just re-visit it when I study for the exam.

Python Crash Course Chapter 1-2! #1

 Hi Everyone,  As a continuation from my CCNA I have started studying towards my Cisco DevNet, to do this I need some prior knowledge with Python (which I dont have) so after doing some research I have found this book! I will be using this until I am comfortable with Python.  In the first two chapters I have learned how to create variables and assigned them values, along with this I have also learned how to use methods with the variables. These are some examples of me beginning my Python journey -  blog_message = "Hi everyone! My name is" name = "Iain" first_blog = "this is my first blog about Pyhton, enjoy!" day, month, year = 29, 11, 2020 print(f"{blog_message.title()} {name.upper()} {first_blog.title()} {day, month, year}") This is my first piece of coding, in this I got to use variables, methods and integers.

I PASSED! Cisco CCNA 200-301! Experience & Where I'm going from here!

 Hi Everyone, Long time no see. As the title says - I passed! After all the studying I have finally finished my CCNA on November 27th. So as a summary I managed to score 900/1000 - what do I think of the exam? I think that the exam focuses on a much wider spectrum than just R&S, I had an illusion in my head that most questions on the exam would revolve around R&S protocols when this wasn't the case at all! I had a majority of wireless questions is regards to WLC's, AP's etc (without going into to much detail - sorry guys blame the NDA) along with this there was other things that were involved that weren't on the blueprint which was mildly frustrating. My Advice? Learn all the gritty details, learn how to read routing tables things like longest prefix, AD, metric - what path will win? Learn protocol numbers, what the requirements for that protocol are to make a decision e.g how HSRP uses an active and standby router and how it decides what router is doing what. B

Python Notes #6 Functions

 Hi Everyone, Today I'm doing functions I have kept this as its own blog as this is a bit of a tougher topic and for my own memory I'd like to be able to find this easily if I ever had to review python notes. A function is a chunk of reusable code this means that the code can be created and then passed anywhere within the code later on. This is how a function works -  def name(first, last): print("Please enter name: ") print(f"Your name is: {first} {last}") name("Iain", "H") In this chunk of code I pass the parameters first & last within the function - from here I create a print statement asking for my name, notice how in the second print statement I am passing the parameters first and last (represented by the curly braces) and lastly I call the function name and define the values within the brackets - with the last statement now first will = 'Iain' and last will = 'H'. This code produces this output - Please enter
