TestOut got labs for networking.
You can likewise opt to use GNS3 (open source), or Cisco Packet Tracer (under SkillsForAll.com) or Cisco Modelling Labs (for CCNP).

Hi Jim.

I am pretty new to CIN and it is probably too late for my answer. If this can still help, my first language is Spanish, and I even lived many years in Ecuador.

Hi Rafa....may I have your contact information please? Thanks......Jim Goughenour

I think they should have some legacy systems and the cost to migration to new version is higher.

This is how my brain works it out --

A /23 has two /24's
A /22 has two /23's (4 /24s)
A /21 has two /22 (8 /24's)

I make it a point to say you will only 255, 254, 248, 240, 224, 192, 128, or 0 in a subnet mask (a fast way to eliminate wrong answers on a Cisco exam).

For students, I use the full dotted quad, for me I just use the last 9 values

/32 255.255.255.255
/31 255.255.255.254
/30 255.255.255.252

In CompTIA Network+ N10-008 Student Guide, Pg. 163. or Instructor Guide Pg. 168.
Question 5 states:
5. A company has eight networks, using the subnet addresses 192.168.0.0/24,
192.168.1.0/24 … 192.168.7.0/24. What network prefix and subnet mask can be used to summarize a
supernet route to these networks?

Answer:
It takes 3 bits to summarize eight networks (23 = 8). Subtracting 3 bits from the existing network
mask makes the supernet network prefix /21. The third octet of the mask will use 5 bits, which is
248 in decimal (25 = 248), so the full mask is 255.255.248.0.

This class is unable to grasp this concept, & I am running out of ways to explain & time to stay on track to finish class where I need to for the day. Any help explaining is greatly appreciated.

@Gregory Childers It work thank you so much for this useful information

Gregory Childers · Jul 22, 2024

Can both be done in one week? Yes, if you do lecture only with no labs or demonstrations.

Should both be done in one week? That is a much better question.

I'm teaching Cloud+ this week and we've already discussed the CrowdStrike issue exhaustively.

I think it is possible if they already have IT experience. If they are new to IT, it will be a lot of information for them to absorb. I would probably recommend 30 to 40 hours per core.

Honestly, for some programs, the completion of a course meets their objectives. We as instructors and tech professionals recognize the breadth of knowledge and in short programs we cannot provide the depth of knowledge. Whenever possible, educate the stakeholders and determine their metrics for student success. This is the reason for investigations of unaccredited programs last year. https://www.ed.gov/news/press-relea...t-aid-students-enrolled-unaccredited-programs

That's kind of nuts.

The place that approached me is a bootcamp, though, not a school. They would most likely just argue back that they are not a higher education institution, and they're not accepting or dispensing financial aid. I think just emphasizing the metrics for success would be the way to go. I'd like to see what metrics they have in place showing the success of students completing the A+ Core 1 and Core 2 in that 5 day span and passed their certifications. If they can't show it, then respectfully, I'll have to back out of teaching that course. It just doesn't make sense to me.

Southwest has been getting so much static over holding onto those old systems. You see it in the Government as well.

One time, I had a requirement come up for a machine that had an 8-bit ISA port for an RS-232 control board for an old HVAC system.

Just because it's old doesn't mean you just throw it away.

LynW · Jul 21, 2024

And in quite a few smaller manufacturing companies too. I have quite a bit of respect for the tech departments that keep them functioning to meet the legacy needs of key equipment.

It appears they do. They just seem to want to do every training, no matter what subject, in five days. It's weird. How do you get quality learning done when there's only five days? I'm inclined to say no, but I think the best thing is to emphatically explain that this isn't going to happen unless they spread it over 10 days, minimum.

PearsonVue has the CA1-005: CompTIA SecurityX Certification Beta Exam listed under "Other exams." When I attempted to register for it, it stated "Scheduling for this exam will begin in the future." Apparently, registration doesn't start until May 17, 2024.

My current CASP+ doesn't expire until 2028 because I used my CISM to renew it, so I don't need it right away. Plus, I'm an Adjunct Instructor for CompTIA so I can get a free voucher when the exam goes live. I'm posting this so that others can take advantage of the beta exam.

5 days for Core 1 and another 5 days for Core 2 (total of 10 days) would be the minimum amount of time I'd recommend.

You can show them the presentation planner for A+.
The client might not yet know the amount of information that is covered by course.

5 Days each will be the most ideal though you can also do combined for 5 days

Thanks. For people who have no knowledge of A+, how would that work out, especially if they're given the voucher to take it after the five day period? There is also no built-in time for review.

You know that Vincent Filibustier is a satirical writer, right? Having said, I get the pun

The 'Fake' CrowdStrike Worker Who Took Credit For Biggest-Ever IT Outage

Hi everyone,

I was approached by someone who wanted me to teach Core 1 and Core 2 in five days- TOTAL. The classes would be 9 am- 6 pm. I could see if they asked for 5 days each, but five days total? Is this possible to do? What is the recommended time to teach the CompTIA Core 1 and Core 2? I'd like to go back and ask him to provide more time for the training before I accept. Thanks!
