How I Plan On Studying For CCENT/ICND1

This is show I plan on studying for the first part of the CCNA R&S exam.

MATERIALS:

1. CBT Nuggets

I am going to be using Jeremy Cioara's CCENT course on CBT Nuggets. These videos have been recommended by a lot of people and this is the first thing I'm going to do.

2. Books

I have the Official Cert Guide by Odom and this is going to be the main book I'm going to use.

I also have Todd Lammle's CCENT book as a PDF. I might use this as reference for some topics.

3. Labs

I am using Packet Tracer and GNS3. I cannot afford a hardware lab, so I'm going to be using a Virtual Lab.



STUDY PLAN:

First Step:

I'm going to go through the CBT Nuggets videos and make a lot of notes from them.

Second Step:

Packet Tracer and GNS3 Labs with the videos.

Third Step:

Use the books and study the whole portion to perfect it.

Fourth Step:

Practice questions using 1001 CCNA questions book and other sources.

Active and Most helpful subreddits: /r/netsec /r/AskNetsec /r/netsecstudents These three are pretty much it. They have very active communities and are very helpful.

IT FUNDAMENTALS

So, this is what I did to learn IT fundamentals.  I knew that Comptia A+ was a really good cert which has a lot of topics and covers the basics of IT, so I decided to study for COMPTIA A+. I used Professor Messer's video's on YouTube. They were really helpful. Also, I used Cybrary . I didn't really get certified, I studied just for the knowledge. Thanks for reading! AZID

I got really interested in the CEH because it was a well known certification and the syllabus really interested me. I also had a ton of recommendations online and from people in this industry saying that the CEH was a really good beginner level security certification. Details about the exam and course: I bought the course from the EC-Council website. There are certain requirements if you want to take this certification. You should either have 2 years experience or buy their online iClass to attempt the exam. As I did not have the required experience I bought the online course. The EC-Council website and how everything works with them is very confusing and I got very confused at times. But thankfully, the customer support answered all my questions and guided me through the buying process and the registration. The course costs $1100 USD in India but I bought the course durin...
