CompTIA Network+ Certified

I have earned my CompTIA Network+ Certification, and together with my A+ Certification that gives me the CompTIA CIOS Certification!

This was such an interesting exam to study for, and it really expanded my horizons when it comes to network technology. When compared to a certification like the CCNA, the Network+ definitely is more broad than deep because it's a vendor neutral cert and covers such a wide range of topics. And at this early stage of my learning, that's exactly what I needed. 

Now I'm debating whether my next cert should be an Azure or AWS cert, or touch base with the CCENT cert, or complete the basic CompTIA trifecta with the Security+. Right now I'm going to just buckle down and focus on school since I've taken on a heavy course load this quarter.

I set this one to have a static IP of 172.16.0.1, and the DNS to the same thing. I set up Active Directory and DCHP on the Server       This is the result of setting a static IP  And then I was able to confirm that everything was up and running correctly. I'm going to save this environment so I ...
