My Experience in CST-311 - Introduction to Computer Networks:

The class was both invaluable and very generous in grading considering the vastness of the body of information about computer networks. I feel like an extremely relevant sliver of networking knowledge was handed to us, but we are far from network professionals still.

I was able to get some very useful and educational experimenting with Python, MiniNet OS, MiniNet Virtual Network Software, MiniEdit, Wireshark, sockets, ping, MiniNet Software's net links nodes pingall traceroute

Here are links to my journals:

I put lots of example knowledge in my journals as I came across it. Here are some screenshots from class work:

Thank You CSUMB for the spectacular networking principles overview class, I sure wish I could absorb more of this subject - and I am, slowly but surely!
