1). Cisco CCNA / CCNP Tutorial: Home Lab Assembly Case Study By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
Part of your CCNA / CCNP education is deciding what network topology to use when you're putting together your home lab. Some of you are starting with one or two routers or switches, while others are starting with more. A customer recently sent me a list of his Cisco routers and switches that he has available for a home lab and asked for my help in coming up with the best way to use them.

2). Ethernet - explained By : john
Do you use Ethernet? You might think that you don’t, but don’t be so sure. Ethernet is everywhere – if you use a networked computer, whether it’s at home or in your office, you’re using Ethernet.
Ethernet is two things: a kind of cable for connecting computers together, and the method of communication that the computers use over the cables. Essentially, it is the glue that holds LANs (local area networks) together.

3). Cisco CCNA Certification Exam Tutorial: The OSI Model’s Physical Layer By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
To pass your CCNA exam and earn this coveted certification, you've got to master the seven layers of the OSI model and what each layer does. For those of you taking the two-exam path, you can expect quite a few OSI model questions on the Intro exam. In this seven-part series, we'll spend some time taking a look at each of the OSI model layers, starting with the Physical layer.

5). Inkjet Vs Laser Printer By : John Sollars
In the early days there was a vast difference between an inkjet printer and its laser version but with time the difference has narrowed down to point where it is sometimes difficult to differentiate between the two. Most individuals continue to use the Inkjet printers, as they are less expensive and nearly all of them are colour capable. The quality of the inkjet printers has improved over time and now there is not a huge difference in printing quality with the Laser printers.

6). Cisco CCNA Certification: Cisco Switching Modes Tutorial By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
To pass the CCNA exam and earn that coveted certification, you've got to know Cisco switches inside and out. Among the many important details you've got to know are the three methods that Cisco switches use to forward frames, and the differences between the three.
The first switching method is Store-and-Forward. The name is the recipe, because that's just what the switch does - it stores the entire frame before beginning to forward it.

8). Network+ Certification Exam Tutorial: Ethernet CSMA/CD Explained By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
When you're studying for the Network+ exam, you've got a lot of new acronyms to learn! One of the basics is CSMA/CD, which stands for Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection. That's quite a mouthful, but it's an important term to know for both your exam and real-world success.
On an Ethernet segment, hosts can send data at any time. As you might guess, that's a bit of a problem in itself, because if multiple hosts send data at the same time, a collision will occur and the data will become unusable.

10). Just What Is MPLS, What Does It Do, And Where Can You Get It? By : Michael Lemm
Your boss has put you in charge of finding a replacement for your frame relay. Your service is slow, expensive, and inflexible. Someone in your IT department mentions MPLS, but those initials are foreign to you.
Don't panic...read on to learn what MPLS is and what it can do for you:
* Multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) was invented to solve the problem of bridging multiple disparate protocols such as Frame Relay, ATM and Ethernet.

11). Cisco CCNA / CCNP Home Lab Tutorial: The 2503 Router By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
I know from experience that part of the excitement and anxiety of putting together your own CCNA / CCNP home lab is deciding what to buy! While you can make a workable home lab out of almost any combination of Cisco routers and switches, some routers are better suited for home lab work than others because they can fill multiple roles.
When you buy CCNA or CCNP "lab kits" - bundles of routers and switches - you can get a little confused about whether you're getting a good deal.

12). Network+ Exam Certification Tutorial: The Bus Topology By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
The Physical layer of the OSI model isn't the most exciting or interesting to work with, but it's the foundation for everything we do in networking. The same goes for the physical side of networking - whether it's cable types, network topologies, or network cards, it's not necessarily the most exciting study you'll ever do, but it is the most important.

While you can make a workable home lab out of almost any combination of Cisco routers and switches, some routers are better suited for home lab work than others because they can fill multiple roles.
My personal favorite is the Cisco 2520.

14). Setting up your network By : john
Configuring a LAN used to be a real pain. You had to manually assign a network address to each device on the network, and keep a record of them to make sure that you didn’t use the same one twice – if you did, both devices would stop working. However, modern LANs with routers using a system called DHCP.
DHCP stands for dynamic host configuration protocol.

15). IP PBX and Its Uses By : San
The integrated voice features, for example unified messaging and "click-to-dial", became available with circuit-switched PBX systems. Complex coordination of voice and data networking environments are required. IP network level however, eliminates much of this complexity, attaining results which are lower costs from consolidating equipment and rapid integration with business applications.

16). Cisco CCNA Certification: Defining And Creating Collision Domains By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
When you're studying to pass the CCNA exam and earn your certification, you're introduced to a great many terms that are either totally new to you or seem familiar, but you're not quite sure what they are. The term "collision domain" falls into the latter category for many CCNA candidates.
What exactly is "colliding" in the first place, and why do we care? It's the data that is being sent out onto an Ethernet segment that we're concerned with here.

17). Networking By : john
Wiring up a LAN (local area network) can be very easy, or it can be very difficult – it all depends on the size of your network, and how you’re trying to go about it.
For a very small home network, you can get by without using any special equipment except the wires. If you want to use a network to share Internet access or a printer, just plug an Ethernet cable into the computers you want to network, and then use the simple networking features that are built into Windows, such as Internet Connection Sharing.

18). Wireless versus Ethernet networks By : john
In recent years, Ethernet hasn’t exactly been fashionable. People are sick of running long wires all over the place, making holes in their walls, and being restricted when it comes to where they can use their computer. Wireless networking has become all the rage – and some predict that it will have killed off Ethernet altogether within a few years.
Wireless networking works by transmitting radio waves through the air.
