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. BOSON BOSON BOSON, this is the holy grail of the exam and made me study more into the wireless side than I ever would  have without it - this was the difference between a pass and fail for me. 

What now? - From now I will I will be studying Python this will lead into me studying towards my DevNet Associate, I am currently aiming to have this finished by February but with life you never know! I intend to document a lot of my Python learning & DevNet learning (this is more if I have the time). When I pass my DevNet I will be aiming for the dizzy heights of a CCNP in Networking! I think this will take alot longer than a few months but I want to enjoy the studying - get equipment for my own use, take time to truly understand the topics and the gritty details and make it an enjoyable experience.


Thanks for reading :)

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.

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
