Networking breakout at MangoCon
-
I wonder if the topic is a bit too basic for the core audience. It sounds like it would be great for a SWorld topic, but the MC audience is pretty technical. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's my gut feel on it. Because the audience is pretty small, it leans towards the more technical side of even ML in general.

I asked Mike to post here so that he could find out exactly what people wanted to learn. Networking was requested as a topic but that can mean a million things. You all asked so what is it you want to learn?

I definitely think that networking is a good topic area. Just guessing that a Networking 101 isn't the right level. More like a 302 class level.

I'd probably cut wireless out of that list. Everything else is just covering the basics. I could go on for a day on wireless, easy
I volunteered to do the Linux command line, desktop, and LVM sessions myself. Working on a practical guide to using LVM at the moment, and I've got an idea for a different sort of demonstration with the desktop training. Command line wise, I'm probably just going to be using what some stranger already wrote.

We should coordinate some as I believe that I am doing a storage essentials course that will talk about LVM theory, but not practice.

I was guessing that the ML crowd would be a bit more technical. I didn't know how many people would show up that lean on their MSP to do all that stuff and are technical in other areas.
If it were networking 102, what could I do in an hour session?

Well, some of the very basic knowledge that everyone just assumes the wrong things with. Like TTL, it doesn't really involve time, even tho it's short for time to live.

Maybe a case study on a Ubiquiti wireless AP roll out. I did one with remote sites, VLANs, Windows NPS, certs pushed through group policy, etc that would probably take an hour to go over.

That'd get my butt in a chair!

What about covering IPV6

That's not a bad idea.
