NAT and Security Sections

Well I finished my NAT and security sections, just finished up the NAT chapter in Routing TCP/IP Vol II.  Great read btw.  I NEED to do some labbing, but dont want to go all hardcore labbing right away when I should be plugging away at reading and theoretical knowledge.  I will probably round the day out with some practice Boson tests, and go from there.  I am a bit under the weather, so long, prolonged studying is hard.

Lost Track of Time

I have to admit I lost track of my study time over the last week and weekend.  My ticker may be a bit behind in regards to the actual count...but then again it doesnt really matter that much.  I promise I will post something with some content in it today.  Work has been absolutely grueling with a huge SAN/Datacenter project, along with some WAN redundancy testing we are doing with some 881G (3G) routers.  That project is actually SuperCool, and has some pretty nifty routing and vpn things going into it.  Anywho...I am still here and plugging away, so we will talk soon.  Does anyone who actually reads this blog have any posting suggestions?? If so please leave a comment and I will get after any of the cool ones!

Multicasting

Well I plugged through the two multicasting chapters in the exam guide today.  Oddly enough I was dreading multicasting but I enjoyed reading about it.  Last time that I really looked at it was for my BSCI, and even then my understanding was pretty vague.  I feel alot better about the topic now, so I will lab a while this afternoon and see how it goes.  I have fallen below the 2 hours/day mark but hope to make up some time with a revamped schedule.  I have to remember that this is a pursuit of knowledge...not a race.  Though the pay bump would be nice!
