Any Academy Association Available for Someone new in Town? (Open to teach & get associated)

Hello All,

I am new to Comptia network but I am an authorized trainer for some renowned vender already & I have great experience in providing training since 2008 till now. I have recently completed virtual TTT series for the course of Pentest+ and I need association to teach somewhere as well to get some comptia related resources and benefits. I am open to train virtually for Cybersecurity, Network Security, Network & linux (specially CCNA, Cybersecurity Associate, CCNP) trainings if my previous experienced considered or at least would love to get certified in the same areas with comptia but to start I need firstly an acade,y for association. How can I get help or recommendations on that.

Thanks in advance to all gems and experts here.

SecAI+: Have we discussed this yet?

Why put AI in it, when AI will be integrated anyway with the next version probably?
As EC for the CEH v13 did.
For Pentest 003 it will be to late.
And why confuse people with additional Names or Courses... Sorry.
Developing a course is expensive, there needs to be a market here.
SO:
AI Prompt+, AI Architect+, AI Scripting+, AI SysOp+, * AI+

These your suggetstions or Course planned to release by CompTIA` that i missed to see?

Please check

SecAI+: Have we discussed this yet?

True observation...I agree-clearer cyber-specific focus would enhance the AI Security angle and CompTIA Expansions: PenTest AI+, CySA AI+, Data AI+, AI Prompt+, AI Architect+, AI Scripting+, AI SysOp+, * AI+ here the focus is on AI

Issues with Security+ and CySA+ Labs

For CertMaster Labs I suggest opening another one of the labs and in the Help tab on the right side of the screen selecting 'Open a Case'. From there you can open a case with support and ask them to reset that lab environment. In the past they typically got that done within 24 hours.
Thank you BrianFord

Is DOGE a threat to national security, or at the very least, Americans' PII?

Apparently, the DOGE website wasn't secured, so several amateur hackers decided to have some fun with it.

Any news on CloudNetX Certification Beta Exam Results

Does anyone know when the CompTIA CloudNetX Certification Beta Exam results are coming out?
The Pearson scheduling site now lists the exam, but it won't allow you to schedule it until Feb 18th. I am hoping Beta results will be available by then. It's been a long wait.

Don't know how to respond to question in 7.4.9 Live Lab: Configure First Hop Redundancy

Hi Bogdan and Michael,
Guten tag.
As I do not have access to the lab, I will give you the basics of Hot Standby Routing Protocol in Cisco IOS.
HSRP Configuration on DIST1 and DIST2

The default gateway is not the address of either router. When standby is configured a MAC address is created that follows the standby IP address.
the Standby command is an interface command, either the VLAN number on a layer 3 switch, or the physical interface on a router i.e. Gig 0/1
The basic command standby (group number must match) IP address that is the default gateway.

DIST1

enable
configure terminal
interface vlan? (whatever vlan is 10.11.2.0, or the physical interface name)
standby 1 ip 10.11.2.5

DIST2
enable
configure terminal
interface vlan? (whatever vlan is 10.11.2.0)
standby 1 ip 10.11.2.5

additionally you could add to the config
standby 1 preempt
standby 1 track interface (typically where interface is the internet connection)

To view the HSRP status
show standby


I don't know if this helps, but I tried.

helping without all information is not easy.
1739547412684.png part of the Information shown.
For me that Lab is 7.8 in testoutapp.
the Terminal gives you back as result:
interface: 10.11.2.102
10.11.2.1 00-15-5d-01-98-03
10.11.2.2 00-15-5d-01-99-03
10.11.2.103 00-15-5d-01-66-64
10.11.2.255 (Broadcast)
224.* (4 different IPs)
239.255.255.250
255.255.255.255(Broadcast)

The Answers:
10.11.2.1
10.11.2.2
10.11.2.5 (not listed, not replying)
10.11.2.100 (not listed in arp)
10.11.2.103 (not listed in arp)
10.11.2.255 (Broadcast, can`t be)


The Graphic shows that 10.11.2.0/4 is Bulding A Floor 1 with DHCP and
.x ITAdmin
.y Office

common sense says the first or last available IP adress is the Router IP.
That would be 10.11.2.1-.
ipconfig says gateway is 10.11.2.5 (for whatever reason). (and not replying to ping as the next steps troubleshoot)
but since the Gateway is on two routers, you need their IP Addresses..

2.1 and 2.2 should be the IP addresses, since the MAC Address is except one Value the same (see above)

If you check Step 2, it also list the IPs that you should ping..

hope that helps.

Anyone Using "a+ cyber?"

It's in the CompTIA store. They have new offerings for the following:

a+ Cyber
a+ Network
AI Essentials
Oh no.

They're pulling the same mistake Apple made in the 1990s: making too large a variety of different products, confusing everybody as to which to pick or use. Because, is "A+ Cyber" A+ and Sec+? No? So do I need A+, Sec+ and A+Cyber? Or just A+Cyber?! It's messy.

EDIT:

Holy moley, five hundred bucks for something I have no idea what it is or does? And the industry also doesn't know it yet? No thanks. I'm really not a fan of what they're pulling here.
