This is primarily a labs course!

This is where you will gain the understanding needed about switching by creating labs from scratch.

You will also learn the terminology used in a switching environment.

Knowing and understanding switching is one of the most basic things that a Network Engineer needs to know in order to apply it in their current job environment and/or future career.

This course is for those of you that need this crucial understanding.

The course was created in a very easy to understand manner so that students can easily grasp the switching concepts.

This course has many labs for students to practice since labbing is one of the most effective tools for students to learn and retain the information provided.

Remember that "Routing" & "Switching" are at the forefront of all Network Engineer positions.

This "SWITCHING" course is precisely what you need to become proficient in the "SWITCHING" part of this.

At the end of the course, you should be able to be comfortable with switches and be able to apply what you have learned to a real-world environment.

Not to mention that this should prepare you for the switching part of any certification.

This course was made with you in mind and just make sure that you do your part to be able to understand and apply everything in this course in your current and/or future career as a Network Engineer.

Sound cut out for a couple of minutes at beginning of lesson 15.

I'm trying to learn all of the functionality of ethernet switches as I work for a company that actually makes ethernet switch chips. So far I have learned quite a bit from this course.

By Jose Martins on 11/2/2021

I assumed signing up for this course that I'd continue to learn more about switches beyond the COMPTia Network + general knowledge. However, you'll find that if you don't have some prior level of experience working with switches and the CLI that this course may not be for suitable for your needs. I sought out this course having completed the MCSA and Network + courses but having never learned to program a switch. The presenter goes through the content rapidly and fails to explain terminology or even some of the basic "why" questions many novice learners might want answered. Also, I don't think many will appreciate the comparison between Network Engineers and "Network Operators", whatever that is. Every Network Engineer started out with nothing and built their skillset and at some point they too were "Network Operators". Know your audience. People are here to better themselves not be looked down upon by someone who simiply has had more exposure to a topic. On a positive note the instructor does appear to respond to questions posting in the Q&A..

it's very informative and helpful in real world use.

By Paul Patterson on 6/9/2021

Laz is Legendary. You tell me. He explains in great depth - history, what it does, why it does not, and why not. You get an instructor that can explain that AND be entertaining and you have LAZ. Thanks, man. Spot me!

By Richard Brotherton on 5/28/2021

I enjoyed this course targeted for switching.

By Tofowa Thom-Goulding on 3/23/2021

This course is very good information to know when working with switches. It applies to network engineers when designing lan networks.

By Jose Ortega on 1/28/2021

So far the course is really good, Lazaro is very knowledge and provides good real life scenarios when it comes to switching. I will update the review once I finish the course, but so far I do highly recommend it to anyone pursuing in a career in Network Engineering.
