David, question...Can you review Cisco ASA firewalls? I know Cisco has been pushing FIrepower very hard but honestly alot of engineers that i've spoken to do not like it...does cisco still have a Standard firewall like the ASA?
I currently have a sg300 24 port switch and about to swap it out with a sg500 52p full poe switch for my home, great switches for a home core switch, but would prefer having a 1000 series switch so I could have full ios, not to mention updating the sg series is a little bit a pain in the butt, great video David and thank you for all you do.
Tip from the good ol' days of DOS: 10:14 - Mr Bombal, there is another, faster way to get the serial ports without using the "Device Manager". In Windows systems, back in the day, we use the command 'mode' in DOS to see which serial ports were available. All Windows systems have the command 'mode' built-in. You just need to open either a CMD or PowerShell window, type 'mode' (without quotes) and press ENTER. You will always get a "CON" device, which is the CONSOLE, and then the serial ports available with a name like 'COM1' or 'COM15'. Thanks for the video. As always, bringing and sharing great content.
since i am a beginner (preparing of my ccna), i'd love to see differences between cisco's STP (PVST+) and regular STP, it would be nice if you manipulate the root bridge and root ports, also if you can pls include how dangerous layer 2 loops can be More Cisco!
Yes. Excellent. As a small-medium business owner, I sell and manage these products. Love to see redundant firewalls with stacked 350 switches and APs - all managed remotely. Love it.
This is a great idea for a series. I'm an Account Director in the IT Industry but was keen to deploy a small Cisco network in my home which would be easy for a non technical person to set up and maintain. This could be a great option.
Pretty cool, Cisco stuff is pretty cool and when you get started and you get used to the CLI it just becomes a whole different and great experience. Will be using some Cisco stuff at least if I can find some for some of my projects to come and very good job David.
I still call these Linksys switches. Maybe comparing things like pps, queues, memory, diff between cpu and asic based switches could make for interesting content. There is a huge difference in (maximum potential) performance between for example an SG350 and C9300 even though they both have 1Gbit ports on the outside
Also big difference on the price, the cbs350 with 48 GE and 4*10G unlink cost around $1500 usd, while c9300 with same configuration would be $7000 to $10,000 depends on your license.
Looks like this will be a good series! I come from many years in working on enterprise products from Cisco, but never looked at their small business offerings and use UniFi products at home. I'm interested in seeing how much one can do with their small business products. The fact that Cisco had switches available for less than $500 blew my mind there...
@@davidbombal Honestly, I only went UniFi because of their web interface and the price and they had a good base feature set with VLAN support, PoE, QOS, etc. Since you've already debunked the price myth, I'm looking forward to seeing if Cisco does web interfaces better on their small business network products since they've yet to convince me they can do it well enough on their enterprise products. At home, I want a break from having to rely on a command line for everything so seeing how the web interfaces work as well as the mobile app you mentioned will be very interesting to me.
This is useful. I love the way you sidestepped the question of how expensive Cisco switches are! You compared the cost on Cisco's website (MSRP) with the cost on Amazon instead of other brands. So I'll do it for you! I'm showing a CBS110-8T-D is exactly $70.00 and a NetGear GS308 is $19.99. I only looked up NetGear because I am familiar with that brand. Another problem that I have faced recently is with a Cisco 4400 Series WLC that someone purchased used alone with 20 Cisco access points. After setting the whole thing up, the access points would not register with the WLC. After hours of reviewing debug data from both devices, watching videos and other sources, I had to give up. I had a friend with CCNA credentials look into it. The certificate on the WLC is expired! It took him a while to figure that one out. At no point, did the Cisco WLC show me any error message indicating the certificate was expired. The only way I can find to deal with the problem is to set the **** thing with an incorrect date. I cannot speak to how long Cisco will last versus my Netgear equipment because my oldest device is only around 10 years old. Before that, I used LinkSys. I loved my RV082! It was a solid performer. And then Cisco bought LinkSys. There were no problems until I updated the firmware to Cisco branded firmware. With each update, my equipment became more and more unstable. As with most devices these days, it does not ask for a new password; it demands it! I have issues with that! As I said, this is useful. I look forward to other videos in this series.
They don’t have a solution anymore for routers in small businesses range. RV series is end of life. You need to look at the meraki routers/gateway now. Also the new WiFi 6 access points don’t mix with the cbw series I believe
FYI: Cisco announces the end-of-sale Cisco RV 160, RV260, RV345P, RV340W, RV260W, RV260P and RV160W VPN Router. The last day to order the affected product(s) is September 15, 2021. The RV340 and RV345 remain for now. We expect a new CBR series SMB routers.
Great video! Thank you for sharing David. Have you tried to deploy the cisco business dashboard and probe? Would like see your approach to it! Have a great weekend 😀!
Thanks David! love your videos and content! can you do a video where you show how you would setup a Cisco switch for your home network and for it to be safe ? including maybe cisco wireless setup. or cisco wireless could be another video entirely!
Cisco uses products like this ones which are fairly good for the medium business to bring you in their echosystem, the problem is when you switch to enterprise, prices increase exponentially and switching to other brands requires to remake the entire architecture and retrain the entire IT department. Beware of this traps people, I had to deal with this for my company.
More and more tempted to look at this and Aruba instant on products over Unifi. Unifi there is always something breaking, today it’s the non replacement battery in the cloud key gen 2. £200 for two years and you can’t replace the battery. Seriously..!!! Yes I can build a new controller on a VM, but Unifi kit really is disposable..
Most of the SMB equipment is OEM'ed by companies bought by Cisco (like Linksys and Meraki and what not). Then they adapted the IOS / CatOS to these foreign boxes. And not always it passed without bugs and performance issues. Does it have the great bridge logo? Yes. Does it feel like real Cisco in the everyday work? Well, not all of it 🤷🏻♂️ Though I did buy it for the companies I worked in.
Great Video! Would love to be a part of this series from a zero to a hero (As I don't have enough knowledge on configuring and troubleshooting Cisco switches and routers).
Hi David. Dedicated individuals to all thing tech and branching of tech into other industries and major fan of yours.🙂 Would love to see how to configure brand new Cisco switch for SMB and/SoHo so that I can place vlans and connect IoT devices like cameras and streaming boxes, printers and LAN to PC, e.t.c. Thank you
I would like to see specifically what the small business / home devices can't do. How complex and secure can we make a network using the cheaper options?
Dave Great idea, I think this is good. Now I am a CCNP but I work at an MSP and almost never get to work with Catylist. One thing to mention I have in my home is a pair of Cisco 3560cx switches. Yea full IOS with 10-G I think it is good just to show them. Looking forward to the series. Jay
How to manage these 350 switches with a mobile app from a remote location with Cisco Business Dashboard. And please more details on Cisco Business Dashboard. How to configure and all the fancy and cozy features. Thank you
Thank you! I look forward to this series. I would love to learn much more about the differences in the OSes. What is missing from "lite" and does that carry over to web UI?
Cheers for this, looking forward for some serious configs :) I have and using the exact cisco small buisness AP the 140ac model (x2) and the sg350 10p managed switch plus rv345 router and one mesh extender which for the moment I dont use. Thanks for the series, defenately will watch every video from them! :)
@@davidbombal configuring etherchanel between switch and router and good wireless configurations for optimal utilisation but every topic related from these series will be much appreciated and defenately watched! Thank you. :)
-Great content Professor David. -Perfect the teacher's analysis, but it is based on the reality of you who buy Amazon and receive the product at home without any customs fee, but this is not my reality. -We have to take into account that the economic reality in much of the world is different from what it is in the USA or Europe, so when we talk about home networking or small business we have to take into account that a new Cisco product here in my country it is very expensive, which makes it unfeasible for domestic use or for small businesses, because for these markets there are vendors that have niched themselves in these markets such as Microtik and other companies such as TPLink and others that are not smaller (because they sell and profit very similar to that of large companies) but focused on this market. -See I'm a Cisco fan boy after all I'm CCNA certified and I'll make it to the CCIE someday, but what makes Cisco spectacular is the technology of both the hardware (which is very good and durable) and the Cisco software. -So when they make a product without the IOS as a Switch that is not managed (without the IOS that was possibly removed to lower the price), it eliminates half of the advantage and makes us question whether the hardware of the ports that is what is left is still of the same quality as the larger Cisco equipment. -And as I said, in this smaller niche, a number of companies sell equipment at the same price as the one the professor showed, but they have VLAN administration with their own systems. -In fact even a Tplink router running OpenWRT (Linux) and can configure BGP, OSPF, Vlans etc. -So if Cisco wants to go down to the level of this class of network devices, just compete with open software people they no longer win and in fact Cisco is making mistakes the way I saw it even in the simplified OS because the people of Open it would make even the standard Cisco commands work even with simpler hardware, so I didn't really like what I saw technically speaking. -By the way, Cisco could be a leader in industrial IoT if it worked with Open communication protocols that Chinese device manufacturers would make compatible hardware, but everything I've seen from Cisco to IoT is pretty closed so they end up missing this train and will end up becoming a Microsoft (locked in on itself having to reinvent itself in various markets) that's what I see from here. -See if you compare Cisco and Juniper (I'm certified in both) Juniper's Junos already has a CLI it's better than IOS, but adding to Cisco technologies such as Cisco proprietary protocols and SDWan and SDN server ai a Cisco wins cool. -Cisco in this class of Devices they sacrifice the Software, which is half the advantage they take to the others, only the hardware left but even then they lowered the spec to lower the price -The advantage of buying a Cisco Device in this case is the same as buying a more expensive IPhone, with the phonephone chines with cheaper capacity on the side (The only advantage is the Vendor Name) and that for a technical person like my case It does not justify. -The world is a mess right now in the pandemic so we'll have to wait to pass the situation pass to really see the future more clear. -Thanks for the knowledge...!!!
Nice video, thanks. I have forgotten that Cisco equipment is quite nice. Take care, I had a little smile seeing your Google history :) Just as normal as the rest of us ...
@@davidbombal Yup, I forgot .. thought it was history :) (I'm boring too, tired of networking, WDM, SDH, Linux, coding ... trying to get the inner fire back by learning Machine learning and AI)
please I need an answer to this, you said it does not require a license, but will I get all layer 2 or some layer 3 features? I want one of this for home use but I also want to exercise all my ccna, ccnp and ccda knowledge, but I will have to buy either a used or refurbished switch but I'm worry that I may not get the switch with an iOS already in it
Hi David, I think this is the first time I visit your channel and watch your video. I read on your website that you have pass CCIE certification and also a certified Cisco instructor. CCIE is the highest level of Cisco networking certification ? I have take CCNA certification in the pass and have pass CCNA 4 exam. Currently you're running a business that provides IT-related courses. Are you created all the courses materials by yourself or employed people as instructors to teach that courses ? Thanks before.
Thanks David awesome video, I worked only on Allied Telesis at-gs950/24 on university, I would like to see the cisco ui (the part with the port based and tag based vlan's) on those switches from the video. Cheers.
Thanks, David, for the very helpful and well-crafted video. I actually remember you from the Linux course on LinkedIn. Didactically well designed, whatever the topic is.
Finally something that's not garbage Ubiquiti i hate them with a passion. Aruba has really good home business level items and price but competition is always good.
Would love to see remote management settings and some of the security settings on the CBS250/350. Looking forward to the series, I am testing the CBW 240 and thought there was a great void in youtube content for the Cisco Business Line.
Cisco is insanely expensive compared to alternative products, considering the main objective of their products is to push around packets fast following standards available on every switch and router on the market, I feel that their success is more of a marketing campaigns like this video rather than actual value for the price.
Maybe in near future a couple of videos of Cisco iOS configuration using configuration management tools, such as Ansible or something from Cisco it self will be great.
I also brought an sg250-08hp switch at home, it is nice for me to start exercising Cisco CLI. Appreciate that you can talk more about how to enhance the security for SMB network!
Great suggestion. Be careful with that device as the CLI is different to full Cisco IOS. I suggest you download Cisco Packet Tracer (free software) so you can build a whole network on your computer (simulation). Great software for learning.
@@davidbombal Yes I know, I also have GNS3 simulator for learning. And I take your CCNA course before and get the cert. Love your clear explanation course and video, hope you can share more cloud development skills as a network engineer role, thanks.
Great video and an eye-opener. I can't wait to watch the series. I will be interested in a video that is more geared toward apprenticeship. learning how to set up a small business environment with real-world deployment in mind. Thank you
Thank you David for your explanation. I like to see how DHCP works, when we have 2 PCs connected to a switch but different VLANs. The switch is connected to a router and then the router should send DHCP DORA to a Windows server machine with a DHCP server. Where there are 2 different scopes. I actually want to se how to configure the router. Do we need VRFs? In such a case should we use virtual interfaces or physical interfaces (router).
Hi David. Seeing a gui for cisco managed devices for the first time. It would be great if you share the circuit diagram or topology while explaining the functionalities
Thank you David Sir. Really eager to watch the follow up series. I would really appreciate if you can show us to create VLANs, inter-VLAN routing and Trunking. May be you could explain us STP as well. Thanks alot sir. This is really helping in my Networking Career.
Great video! is this a hint the classic CLI is vanishing? or the newer, or lightweight version, as referred in the video, is only used for some specific switches?
Looking forward to see the cbs250/350 setups, as we are using SG300/350 right now, and several of these switches have passed the 10 year mark (installed in 2010)
Hi David, basically I am a network engineer but I am also interested in aws & azure so can you guide me what will be the good to pursue as a career? It will be great if you create a video like network engineer benefits and cloud benefits.
Please make a video on best bluetooth adapters for hacker. I can't find the good one. My neighbours are very unsocial they don't listen to us. So, I want to ddos on there bluetooth device. So please explain on a video.
Hey David. I need your help rn I was looking for help from a guy and he told me to paste something in my google console. I did it and now he can control my discord. Someone told me that he do it though my Mac address I saw your video with it about a year ago how to change it does it help with change or can he still control since he got my mac address. I really need help he already have taking 500 euro from my paypal.
😂😂😂😂 yeah, they have a whole range of products for you to spend your hard earned dollars on. Then, when you try to get some minor technical support, it becomes very clear what they think of you and your business. I tried building my network with cisco based on this video and videos like it. Well, never again. Cisco will not get one dime from me in the future, and I'll take these videos with a grain of salt. Lesson learned.
@@davidbombala few ideas off the top of my head are: - Understanding the differences between Cisco's product line up (and even naming scheme, but I understand if that's perhaps too detailed for most people); - How to scope the ideal gear and how to decide between the specific models between them; As the series progresses, I'm sure there will be more interesting suggestions from us all. :) Thanks for asking David.
Had me going there for a second. 🤣 Would love to engage with DB directly though, not gonna lie. 😅 But then again that's what the Discord server is for. 💪
Hi, I am a bit lost in the 3 different lines according to the older models of Cisco. Is Cisco RV340-K9 router and Cisco SG300-28PP-K9 switch good for CCNA do they have the full Cisco OS?
Great video David, thanks so much, you can show us how to connect an old friend like the switch 2960 from 2010-2011 to these new cisco switches, using vlan and vtp domain, trunk, etc. greetings from Chile latam
FWIW, I have a Cisco 8 port SG200 managed switch on my home network, along with pfsense for my router/firewall and Unifi access point. I went this route because I wanted a bit better than consumer grade gear. I also have a Cisco 2600 series router, which I used to study for my CCNA. BTW, I have a lot of experience with Adtran, as I used to work for their Canadian distributor. Their AOS is pretty much a clone of Cisco's IOS.

Hi, David.
Great video, are you still planning to do follow-up video on these devices? If yes can you setup a sample for home lab network.
Thanks for such a great video. I’d like to see automatic image and configuration deployment for the CBS350 series switches.
Hi David, did you create the series on cisco business, can't find any other videos apart from this one.

great video but i can't seem to find the playlist for the whole series 😕
So no follow up video has ever been released?
Hi David. Dedicated individuals to all thing tech and branching of tech into other industries and major fan of yours.🙂
Would love to see how to configure brand new Cisco switch for SMB and/SoHo so that I can place vlans and connect IoT devices like cameras and streaming boxes, printers and LAN to PC, e.t.c.
Thank you
sir, your B-ROLLs are getting better and better
it's mind-blowing right now 😍
@David Bombal UA-cam scamming by imitating David's identity???
not cool brow, not cool.
I would like to see specifically what the small business / home devices can't do. How complex and secure can we make a network using the cheaper options?
Dave
Great idea, I think this is good. Now I am a CCNP but I work at an MSP and almost never get to work with Catylist.
One thing to mention I have in my home is a pair of Cisco 3560cx switches. Yea full IOS with 10-G I think it is good just to show them.
Looking forward to the series.

Hello, I work with the Cisco Business product line at Cisco. We have a lot of features on the roadmap for this year to help MSP's. So stay tuned!
Great video, David! I have used the SG300 and SG350, so I am very interested in this series to see the new stuff in action.
👏👏👏 Thank you David!!! Always the Best teacher!!!
yes we are interested to see SMB server. Go ahead and make it more fruitful.
How to manage these 350 switches with a mobile app from a remote location with Cisco Business Dashboard. And please more details on Cisco Business Dashboard. How to configure and all the fancy and cozy features. Thank you
Thank you! I look forward to this series. I would love to learn much more about the differences in the OSes. What is missing from "lite" and does that carry over to web UI?
Cheers for this, looking forward for some serious configs :) I have and using the exact cisco small buisness AP the 140ac model (x2) and the sg350 10p managed switch plus rv345 router and one mesh extender which for the moment I dont use. Thanks for the series, defenately will watch every video from them! :)
@@davidbombal configuring etherchanel between switch and router and good wireless configurations for optimal utilisation but every topic related from these series will be much appreciated and defenately watched! Thank you. :)
-Great content Professor David.
-Perfect the teacher's analysis, but it is based on the reality of you who buy Amazon and receive the product at home without any customs fee, but this is not my reality.
-We have to take into account that the economic reality in much of the world is different from what it is in the USA or Europe, so when we talk about home networking or small business we have to take into account that a new Cisco product here in my country it is very expensive, which makes it unfeasible for domestic use or for small businesses, because for these markets there are vendors that have niched themselves in these markets such as Microtik and other companies such as TPLink and others that are not smaller (because they sell and profit very similar to that of large companies) but focused on this market.
-See I'm a Cisco fan boy after all I'm CCNA certified and I'll make it to the CCIE someday, but what makes Cisco spectacular is the technology of both the hardware (which is very good and durable) and the Cisco software.
-So when they make a product without the IOS as a Switch that is not managed (without the IOS that was possibly removed to lower the price), it eliminates half of the advantage and makes us question whether the hardware of the ports that is what is left is still of the same quality as the larger Cisco equipment.
-And as I said, in this smaller niche, a number of companies sell equipment at the same price as the one the professor showed, but they have VLAN administration with their own systems.
-In fact even a Tplink router running OpenWRT (Linux) and can configure BGP, OSPF, Vlans etc.
-So if Cisco wants to go down to the level of this class of network devices, just compete with open software people they no longer win and in fact Cisco is making mistakes the way I saw it even in the simplified OS because the people of Open it would make even the standard Cisco commands work even with simpler hardware, so I didn't really like what I saw technically speaking.
-By the way, Cisco could be a leader in industrial IoT if it worked with Open communication protocols that Chinese device manufacturers would make compatible hardware, but everything I've seen from Cisco to IoT is pretty closed so they end up missing this train and will end up becoming a Microsoft (locked in on itself having to reinvent itself in various markets) that's what I see from here.
-See if you compare Cisco and Juniper (I'm certified in both) Juniper's Junos already has a CLI it's better than IOS, but adding to Cisco technologies such as Cisco proprietary protocols and SDWan and SDN server ai a Cisco wins cool.
-Cisco in this class of Devices they sacrifice the Software, which is half the advantage they take to the others, only the hardware left but even then they lowered the spec to lower the price
-The advantage of buying a Cisco Device in this case is the same as buying a more expensive IPhone, with the phonephone chines with cheaper capacity on the side (The only advantage is the Vendor Name) and that for a technical person like my case It does not justify.
-The world is a mess right now in the pandemic so we'll have to wait to pass the situation pass to really see the future more clear.
-Thanks for the knowledge...!!!
Thanks for educating us on access device through Web console & using Putty, will be waiting to see how to access through mobile application.
Nice video, thanks. I have forgotten that Cisco equipment is quite nice. Take care, I had a little smile seeing your Google history :) Just as normal as the rest of us ...
@@davidbombal Yup, I forgot .. thought it was history :) (I'm boring too, tired of networking, WDM, SDH, Linux, coding ... trying to get the inner fire back by learning Machine learning and AI)
please I need an answer to this, you said it does not require a license, but will I get all layer 2 or some layer 3 features? I want one of this for home use but I also want to exercise all my ccna, ccnp and ccda knowledge, but I will have to buy either a used or refurbished switch but I'm worry that I may not get the switch with an iOS already in it
Great content David, I think I will get some of these for my hone network.
Hi David,
I think this is the first time I visit your channel and watch your video.
I read on your website that you have pass CCIE certification and also a certified Cisco instructor. CCIE is the highest level of Cisco networking certification ?
I have take CCNA certification in the pass and have pass CCNA 4 exam.
Currently you're running a business that provides IT-related courses. Are you created all the courses materials by yourself or employed people as instructors to teach that courses ?
Thanks before.
Thanks David awesome video, I worked only on Allied Telesis at-gs950/24 on university, I would like to see the cisco ui (the part with the port based and tag based vlan's) on those switches from the video. Cheers.
Great suggestion. I'll definitely cover VLANs / trunking etc in the series.
Thanks, David, for the very helpful and well-crafted video. I actually remember you from the Linux course on LinkedIn. Didactically well designed, whatever the topic is.
Love to hear about fully featured value Cisco switches. I’m especially interested in a 3/4 port Poe switch that does span.
Would be really interested to see you build up a small but proper network with all kinds of configurations
Cool content David , cant wait to see the follow up SMB real world setup👍
Finally something that's not garbage Ubiquiti i hate them with a passion.
Aruba has really good home business level items and price but competition is always good.
Would love to see remote management settings and some of the security settings on the CBS250/350. Looking forward to the series, I am testing the CBW 240 and thought there was a great void in youtube content for the Cisco Business Line.
Would love to see more from this series. Is it right, that the Cisco Business Dashboard requires a license?
Cisco is insanely expensive compared to alternative products, considering the main objective of their products is to push around packets fast following standards available on every switch and router on the market, I feel that their success is more of a marketing campaigns like this video rather than actual value for the price.
Maybe in near future a couple of videos of Cisco iOS configuration using configuration management tools, such as Ansible or something from Cisco it self will be great.
Very informative... always to the point
Thanks Mr. David
Thank You David. if you don't mind I Would like to see how we can connect printers to the network and Configure them.
I also brought an sg250-08hp switch at home, it is nice for me to start exercising Cisco CLI. Appreciate that you can talk more about how to enhance the security for SMB network!
Great suggestion. Be careful with that device as the CLI is different to full Cisco IOS. I suggest you download Cisco Packet Tracer (free software) so you can build a whole network on your computer (simulation). Great software for learning.
@@davidbombal Yes I know, I also have GNS3 simulator for learning. And I take your CCNA course before and get the cert. Love your clear explanation course and video, hope you can share more cloud development skills as a network engineer role, thanks.
@@davidbombal Agreed, Firewall,switch, AP with my home network. during the configuration I understand network concept more clear
Great video and an eye-opener. I can't wait to watch the series. I will be interested in a video that is more geared toward apprenticeship. learning how to set up a small business environment with real-world deployment in mind. Thank you
very nice David for this video. your video is awesome.
Thank you David for your explanation. I like to see how DHCP works, when we have 2 PCs connected to a switch but different VLANs. The switch is connected to a router and then the router should send DHCP DORA to a Windows server machine with a DHCP server. Where there are 2 different scopes.
I actually want to se how to configure the router. Do we need VRFs? In such a case should we use virtual interfaces or physical interfaces (router).
Looking forward to watch them!
Thinking of getting the C1000 for home use and to study for CCNA ,love the form factor and price, do you think it’s a good option for CCNA study use?
Hi David. Seeing a gui for cisco managed devices for the first time. It would be great if you share the circuit diagram or topology while explaining the functionalities
I would like to see trunk ports, L2/L3 etherchannels, port security, and routing protocols (RIP, EIGRP, and OSPF) if possible.
An awesome video! Hat's off to your knowledge and you!!!!!!
I appreciate that!
Thank you David.....love your content .. love watching your UA-cam channel..
Thank you David Sir. Really eager to watch the follow up series.
I would really appreciate if you can show us to create VLANs, inter-VLAN routing and Trunking.
May be you could explain us STP as well.
Thanks alot sir. This is really helping in my Networking Career.
Thank you Nikhil. Great suggestions!
Looking forward to new content in this series!
Hi David, is this serie is going to continue?
Great video! is this a hint the classic CLI is vanishing? or the newer, or lightweight version, as referred in the video, is only used for some specific switches?
Best networking channel 💥❤
Nice video. Did you do the series on building an entire SMB network with the cisco 1000/wireless/router?
I don’t think ao
Cool video. Thumbs up.
thanks David,it really helps
Another interested subject is VRFs when we use them and why. How to configure VRFs?
Thank you in advanced!
Thank you David, love what you are doing!
Sir how to modify the online games and apps or how to know the source code
Great i was waiting this because it s important to know if cisco are for all People or for some specific top geek thanks Mr Bombal
Thank you. Cisco are the market leaders in networking. So, if you want to be in networking, you are going to want to learn about Cisco equipment.
Looking forward to see the cbs250/350 setups, as we are using SG300/350 right now, and several of these switches have passed the 10 year mark (installed in 2010)
Not anything specific right now, but something might come up when watching the videos.
Are you going to do more videos on these products ? I can’t seem to find the ones you said you would do !
Hello David Bombal . I have a question . Java or Python . Which is the easy and which one is in high demand ?
Hi David, basically I am a network engineer but I am also interested in aws & azure so can you guide me what will be the good to pursue as a career? It will be great if you create a video like network engineer benefits and cloud benefits.
Please make a video on best bluetooth adapters for hacker. I can't find the good one. My neighbours are very unsocial they don't listen to us. So, I want to ddos on there bluetooth device. So please explain on a video.
Hey David. I need your help rn I was looking for help from a guy and he told me to paste something in my google console. I did it and now he can control my discord. Someone told me that he do it though my Mac address I saw your video with it about a year ago how to change it does it help with change or can he still control since he got my mac address. I really need help he already have taking 500 euro from my paypal.
😂😂😂😂 yeah, they have a whole range of products for you to spend your hard earned dollars on. Then, when you try to get some minor technical support, it becomes very clear what they think of you and your business.
I tried building my network with cisco based on this video and videos like it. Well, never again. Cisco will not get one dime from me in the future, and I'll take these videos with a grain of salt.
Lesson learned.
Very much looking forward to this series!
Thank you! Any specific topics that you want me to cover?
@@davidbombala few ideas off the top of my head are:
- Understanding the differences between Cisco's product line up (and even naming scheme, but I understand if that's perhaps too detailed for most people);
- How to scope the ideal gear and how to decide between the specific models between them;
As the series progresses, I'm sure there will be more interesting suggestions from us all. :) Thanks for asking David.
Had me going there for a second. 🤣
Would love to engage with DB directly though, not gonna lie. 😅 But then again that's what the Discord server is for. 💪
@@grizzlah I'm here. Getting rid of that spammer. Great suggestions
Hi, I am a bit lost in the 3 different lines according to the older models of Cisco. Is Cisco RV340-K9 router and Cisco SG300-28PP-K9 switch good for CCNA do they have the full Cisco OS?
Great video David, thanks so much, you can show us how to connect an old friend like the switch 2960 from 2010-2011 to these new cisco switches, using vlan and vtp domain, trunk, etc. greetings from Chile latam
awesome!! thank you David, cant wait for the next videos!!
Thank you Ruben! Any specific topics you want me to talk about?
FWIW, I have a Cisco 8 port SG200 managed switch on my home network, along with pfsense for my router/firewall and Unifi access point. I went this route because I wanted a bit better than consumer grade gear. I also have a Cisco 2600 series router, which I used to study for my CCNA.
BTW, I have a lot of experience with Adtran, as I used to work for their Canadian distributor. Their AOS is pretty much a clone of Cisco's IOS.
Thanks for sharing James. Any suggested topics to talk about in this video series?
