My Passion & Vision (1/2)
As a CIN member, I'm deeply committed to expanding access to IT and Cyber education, esp.in underserviced communities, (E.g., HBCUs); believing access to quality training, mentorship, and certifications can open new career pathways for students who have historically faced barriers in the tech field.

When you click on the link to recordings from the Network+ deep dive I did in 10/2020 they no longer work. I suggest people learning basic networking to review them. That was set I did.

I once used SSH local forwarding when I needed to access a web application that was only available on a remote server's internal network. By setting up local forwarding, I was able to securely connect my local machine to the remote server’s localhost port and access the application as if it were running on my machine.

ssh -L 8080:localhost:80 user@remote_server

I don't have a comment - I have a question. My question involves step 5, where key pairs are generated. Does this step always take place, even when passwords are used for authenticaton?
precious
Beautiful question @Trevor Chandler! In step 5, key pairs are generated only for public key authentication. If password authentication is used, key pair generation isn't necessary(step 4). Instead, the server verifies the password, and a session key is still negotiated to encrypt the communication. So, key pairs are used only in public key authentication, not in password-based methods.
I am in interested have 90% of CompTIA certs and been teaching since 2007.

Hello Elizabeth, what exactly is the responsibility/assignment of the coach?
Hi Andrea, I am teaching the ITF+ course at Navarro College in Texas. I am looking for expertise in helping me to set up my course in Canvas and best practices. It sounds like you have used the CompTIA course materials at the college level. Any chance we could talk?
