How in depth does the Network+ go into subnetting? Lammle's is going pretty hard at the material in his Network+ book and I wonder if he's doing so because it's his cup of tea or Comptia requires that much understanding of subnetting.

Is it enough to land a help desk position with just the A+ and Network+ but no experience? The job postings in my area almost always stress previous experience no matter what the position is.

DGK2000 posted:Man, here I was all worried when I was handed a voucher two weeks ago for the network+ that expired tomorrow. I sat for the cert today after a hard night of drinking and passed it with only having really studied for about 4 days. Were you already familiar with the material? Cause otherwise, wow.

DGK2000 posted:Getting an AS degree, probably getting stuck in helldesk. Fairly interested in being a network admin, but I think the CCNA is a ways down the road for me. Though I already have an AS degree, I'm pretty much on the same plan, and count on A+ and N+ being enough to secure an entry level gig. So, unless money is an issue, I would say getting the A+ can't hurt.

SaltLick posted:That is pretty much the purpose of those certs. Anything that says 2 years of experience of help desk is bullshit. Get A+ and apply. Hell you could probably put in your résumé "persuing A+ certification" and get hired.

Senor Science posted:I have a question concerning the A+. I'm looking to getting both of my A+/N+ in the next few weeks to help me get into an entry level IT job and to pad up my resume. The test version doesn't matter, but the newer version has a revised syllabus and a few simulations.

lazypeterson posted:I'm looking to get A+ certified in about a month and I was wondering if the CompTIA/Sybex books would be beneficial, or if it'd be a waste of money when there seems to be so much free info available online. The practice exam portion of the link on the OP thread is currently down, does anyone have any links to other practice exams? Depends on your familiarity with the material. I didn't know much about computers and I found reading one of those thick books (the Sybex one) to be illuminating. I hear the Michael Myers book is less dry though. That said, I bet you can absorb the material just through the web and the Professor Messer videos. Prof Messer even has a great deal of practice questions on his website compiled over the last few years that are quite similar to the ones on the test.

So I passed the Network+ today. I also have the A+. Are Windows 7 certs worth getting?

Corvettefisher posted:Only if you CertKing'd it(course any cert is at that point). If you actually set up the labs(even packet tracer is head and sholders above most), and read the material it is full of worth. I see people on other tech forums and youtube going crazy with the labbing, having a full rack of switches/routers and whatnot. Curious how much of that is necessary. Makes the whole thing seem a bit daunting.

Just remember that the simulations at the beginning are weighed more towards your score. After I completed them, the test picked up from question 21.

Doug posted:What's the best book for the new CCNA? Is it still just the Odom Cisco Press book? There's no chance I can be ready to test by September and I figure I might as well get a jump on the new one since that's what will be required for retests. I hear a lot of people saying this, but man, you have four months. That's like an academic semester.

I hit a snag in my CCNA studies...I've spent about 6 days on Lammle's chapter on VLANs...maybe I'm just burned out. Is that the hardest topic on the syllabus?

Alctel posted:Just redoing my CCENT from 4 years ago since apparently they expire after 3 years. Lots of differences, it's a lot better laid out now (Cisco Press) I'm slowly working through Lammle's book, and the problem isn't that any of the material is hard but just there is so much of it. So, so much.
