[Pseudocyber]

IMHO, the hot Security Cert is CISSP.

 

[Doonz]

but to break into CISSP is $$...as compared to CIW ...which although not as big still recongnized is $:winkgrin: Gotta getthe foundation at the cost...:winking:

 

[Pseudocyber]

[tcheavey]

I have been busy trying to catch up to yous guys, Tues 10-8 passed 70-210 to become MCP, Thur 70-215, in a week should be trying 70-222... hoping to make 7 out of 8 in the next 6mo to get the full MCSE on Win2K, that would be a good step in the right direction for this cat.

 

[Pseudocyber]

Way to go tcheavey! Keep it up! Good luck!

 

[gotissues68]

I don't have any certs.. where would you guys suggest I start? I know that sounds very n00b.. and I'm sorry but I figure I might as well ask

 

[Drupy]

What???? No Certs????? Just Kidding. Me I would say start with A+ and Net+. While they like to put me to sleep in class they are a very good steping stone to deciding where to go from there.

 

[Pseudocyber]

I agree with Drupy. A+ and Net+ are the basics of hardware and networking - everybody in IT needs to understand this regardless of further ambitions.

 

[Drupy]

Almost forgot what ever you do make it a point to learn subnetting. Trust me it will make this networking business alittle less stressful.

 

[Pseudocyber]

Again, what Drupy said.

We use it all the time here! Just memorize these numbers:

128
192
224
240
248
252
254
255

If you have to ask, look up subnetting!

 

[Drupy]

Man I never thought I'd be the one able to give words of wisdom. But the more I learn the more I feel compelled to teach.

 

[Pseudocyber]

Same here Drupy. Plus "teaching" reinforces our own learning.
