Can't agree more. If I've been through subnet masks once I've been through it ten times with my son. He's still not happy with wildcard masks and goes off the handle if the addresses aren't contiguous. I'm going to leave it until he's at least six years old now. I'm wasting my time with him. :-)

Priscilla, I'd have to disagree with you here. We have many, many programs that are doing well in the high schools. We supervise 20 Local Acadamies of which 18 are high schools. In fact, the Academy Program was originally intended just for high schools and they comprise the bulk of our acadami

But can the twelve year old solve a BGP neighbor issue? More then likely his answer will be, "well I put everything in the GUI where it asked." --- Mark Smith wrote: > Quoting "Robert D. Cluett" : > > > I like this statement > > > > "Times have changed, he said. Six years ago the > > techn

I agree that the statement of the 12-year-old is going too far. Having said that, I do agree that knowledge of basic networking has been commoditized. To be perfectly honest, if all you know how to do is connect a router and configure some basic static routes, you don't know much, not in this ec

And, can you stand one more message on this topic? ;-) Instead of reading that rather silly interpretation of the salary study, be sure to go to the actual study at TCP Magazine. It's very interesting, and one could easily come away with a good impression of the market, not the bad one that we ar

I like this statement "Times have changed, he said. Six years ago the technology was complex. Certification was important because it told an employer and customers that the certified professional could find his way around complicated networks. But now networks are easier to install and mainta
