[@christrathen9449]

YOU ARE A BOSS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - make this stuff SO Much easier than my tutor

[@stocksj]

Your information is a great help in helping me setup a home lab with switches and a router to study for my CCNA.

[@oniongaam]

Still enjoying your lessons bro, keep them coming

[@LabEveryday]

+Andrew Onionga Thanks Andrew. More are definitely coming.

[@chriswoods1811]

You are the man. I struggled to get SSH working. I was doing steps out of sequence. Did it verbatim and bam, right in :)

[@nickupleger2572]

Super excited that I found your vids, I take my test this week. Thanks for all the helpful info man! Keep it up.

[@LabEveryday]

Awesome! Which test are you taking?

[@nickupleger2572]

Du'An Lightfoot taking the CCNA 200-125 R & S, excited but nervous

[@adeyemojoseph5481]

Worked for me, Thanks.

[@Emmanuel-so9eo]

Great tutorial Duan. I practice this every day on packet tracer but now feel more confident in trying it on my real hardware after watching this video. BTW Did u make the instrumental in the background?

[@LabEveryday]

Thanks Emmanuel. Did you set your home lab up? And yes I created the instrumental.

[@thebzz2299]

excellent excellent video... just Subscribed.

[@mea167]

Youre my fav!!! Thank you for making videos!!!

[@ИгорьПетров-ю4в]

Thank you very much for the video, it really helped and most importantly saved my time, everything is clear and great

[@samjones4327]

Another great video! Thanks for the info! Peace👌🏾

[@BitByteTechs]

You should really change the title of the video to "How to configure SSH on your Cisco Switch". Thank you for the walkthrough though!

[@jorgenrhodejensen]

Hi D In Windows you can make a shortcut for putty that automatically opens a saves profile (saving some clicks). Lets say you have a profile saved called "SW1". You can then create a desktop shortcut to the putty program and then append "@SW1", so it looks something like "....putty.exe @SW1". Clicking that icon now launched the profile in putty directly. If you have 4-5 of these you use often, you can put them in you launchbar - or even add keyboard short-cuts to launch them. Just a very small timesaver.... btw: Still windows dings ;-) Aside for that great video, and thanks for the S/O on twitter

[@Indian-Homelander]

did u remove the console wire before using ssh?

[@s0l0s0rr0]

Hey duan excellent tutorial. But i have a question! When you entered the syntax vty...what does that mean and what does it do? I got a little confused as to why you entered that. Thanks again!

[@LabEveryday]

Hi thanks. Vty stands for Virtual teletype (VTY). You use vty lines to remotely connect and manage your device. You set your vty line password and then you can login via ssh or telnet from your pc, laptop, or another router or switch. I plan to go more into this in the future.

[@sdrtyrtyrtyuty]

Hey Du'An, nice video. I didn't know you could specify the 1024 bit encryption in one command with the modulus command. Also, I passed the ccna a few weeks ago. Working on the CCNP Switch now because it is SOOOOOO easy. I mean it's like comptia A+ easy! I guess once you get a majority of the scary concepts of the cisco world, the rest just comes to you naturally.

[@sdrtyrtyrtyuty]

Thanks Du'An! I've set a goal to pass the CCNP switch in about a month. Then take 3 months for route and 3 months for tshoot and hopefully be CCNP first thing 2018. Also, it seems like the CCNP switch is ALOT of the CCENT/CCNA review stuff like STP and etherchannel. Can you confirm? Or am I studying outdated content?

[@sdrtyrtyrtyuty]

Wow 5 months! I would be more motivated to complete this but seems like MANY people are saying to not get the CCNP until you have actual real world experience in the networking field or else employers will think suspicious thoughts on how you got CCNP with no experience. (Most people say the CCNA's theyve interviewed knew just about nothing about networking in the interview). Maybe I just overstudied for the CCNA? LOL but this is nice. I have already been labbing switch material for my CCNA studies so I am already proficient in VTP, DTP, EC, STP, etc etc. There are a few new topics but they are so easy to grasp. I am using ITProtv with don pezet to study, its about 12 hours of content. Also, I think it put your post into spam mode because of the amazon link :)

[@sdrtyrtyrtyuty]

Agreed. I am using cisco equipment to power my home internet which helps in learning this stuff so I am always watching for when things go wrong. I finally caused a spanning tree loop today which was a scary sight seeing lights blinking a million times a second haha. I put on my resume that I am CCNA certified at the top and under education I put that I am currently studying for the CCNP and have had a few employers ask me how the CCNP is going. Also, congrats on the interview man! GL in SF!! I just got word that I should be expecting an interview soon working for the govt. Anything I should be ready for? How will they take it when I say I have experience but only in my home lab? It is a network admin job with no sysadmin responsibilities which is great.

[@jacktatum2592]

Great videos, If I was going to setup a a new network in a lab (no configs yet) with 3 routers and 3 switches and wanted to have ssh on all devices, what is the minimum settings to get ssh working on all devices? Thanks, Jack

[@jacknapier79]

Hey, are you going to have chance to do a live broadcast this week?

[@jacknapier79]

Cool, i bombed the troubleshooting part of the CCNA. I wanted to know what are your show coomands of choice when troubleshooing routing protocols. I know everyone has favorite their go to favorites.

[@jacknapier79]

It was the exam, ICND2. It was a tough loss but atleast they showed me what i need to work on. It makes for an exciting come back lol. The lab part was done using only show commands. OSPF seems the most difficult. Thanks again.

[@marcusallen6123]

Aww man you're an OSU fan? And to think I actually liked you.... 😆😆 Go Dawgs!!

[@amanuelelhanan4716]

SSH is meant to be used from remote areas, therefore testing SSH on the same subnet is a good example to describe SSH

[@alexdominguez9165]

I like your Videos Bud. They are really simple and easy to understand. Do you have a video for "How to ssh into a cisco router using putty"? Thank you.

[@Mongoosemcqueen]

Love this music Du'An

[@averywilliams1908]

Very informative videos! I've scheduled my security plus test, but I've also bought a CCNA book. I'm looking to buy some switches and routers, and hopefully I can hit you If I have any questions.

[@myob2k]

Hey man, Please please and pretty please give me info on your glasses here. I got to get them asap! Thanks in advance.

[@Ris3AndGrind]

I have a question. I’m using my MacBook Pro for my terminal from my console cable. Do I need a terminal emulator if I won’t to Telnet or ssh Into the router or switch?

[@LabEveryday]

Check this out. I hope it helps. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5CtZmBnoMmLrMk

[@adamlicht6614]

Love your videos and your passion for what you do. This was very informative, many thanks!

[@mohamudali3138]

I have just taken my Icnd1 and failed it by 100 points really depressed , but i gotta keep going. my goals Network security / system admin , i just had question can i put the cisco logo and topics i learned on my resume while am still studing for My Icnd1

[@mohamudali3138]

thanks bro

[@windell0121]

Don't feel down I have worked around guys that pass many tests and have many certs but have no drive or hunger OR desire to do the job right because they have all the qualifications and expect that to work for them. You will have a totally different level of desire and motivation due to the struggle and work which will carry over into the job.

[@mohamudali3138]

Thanks windell0121 for the encouragement and motitvation , I feel more confident now that I learned form mistakes . Windell what other certification do you think would best fit Network security field.

[@HaiTran-fi1uc]

is your laptop ethernet port plugged into one of the switchport for this to work? my vlan wont come up/up on the switch but i also dont have my laptop plugged up to the switch.

[@Kevin-r7f4u]

yes, he shows in the video that the laptop is connected directly to the switch with an ethernet cable

[@ajanifoster9559]

Goodwill good works it's a good work it's good it's I didn't know anything about this but by watching it I could see that it is interesting

[@ericwei9411]

Hey I was wondering, how should I study for the 70-695 Deploying Windows Desktops and Enterprise Applications. If I earn this cert it would make me MCSE Windows 10. However, there are not many resources out there, I was wondering what should you think I should do.

[@p.chuckmoralesesquire3965]

apparently my 2960 switch does not have the crypto firmware so i cant do ssh ?

[@gmen4life172]

Appreciate you!!!

[@alphabanks]

Great video also Go Bucks

[@baod3021]

[@LabEveryday]

To log into the line con 0. Or using a username and password that was locally created on the device.

[@LightningMaloy]

To reset the IP settings on the port.
