I saw a Udemy course that sparked all kinds of ideas…Get Hands-On Practice Building your Own Networking Lab. This course uses virtualization to create a network. In the past I was solely using virtualization to test other Linux distributions. I rarely do that these days. But this may give me a more practical use of virtualization.
I might have to look back but I think I remember Noah Chelliah (of the Ask Noah podcast) talking about a cool network learning tool. I couldn’t remember it’s name however in looking at the course description I saw mention of GNS3, after googling, I’m sure that’s it! One big downside of the course for me, is a Windows computer (preferably Windows 10) requirement, and lot of it revolves around MS-Windows. The course is $90 but if it goes on one of Udemy’s many sales it might be worth $15 or $20 to get some ideas. I might be able to adapt it to work with Linux. Just a thought at this point.
On the other hand this video gave me an idea to search YouTube for Building your Own Networking Lab, and some results were shown. And this further caused me to search YouTube for GNS3 where I saw GNS3: Start here if you are new to GNS3 by the instructor of one of Udemy’s Wireshark courses. So the Title and course description alone has given me many ideas. Oh the possibilities!
