Practical Networking

📊 What would you like to see next on this channel? (👇 for more details)

I'm beginning to scope out the next project for the channel, there are four options:

1️⃣ Practical Cryptography series

This would be an extension to the current Crypto Essentials series, but wrapped around practical cryptography. Meaning every concept will be shown / proven with commands you can use to encrypt/decrypt/hash/etc.

2️⃣ IPsec Deep Dive

This would use the Crypto Essentials series as a jumping off point to understand exactly what happens on the wire in an IPsec VPN tunnel.

This could then be followed with other VPN tunnel protocols (Wireguard, OpenVPN, IKEv2, etc).

3️⃣ IPv6 Subnetting

I've taught IPv6 subnetting in person using a method that I've NEVER seen replicated elsewhere. It's been on my list to teach on YT for a while now. And perhaps, now is the time?

(fun fact, I purchased subnetipv6.com nearly 8 years ago for this exact purpose)

4️⃣ Something else (let me know by posting a comment)

If these three don't tickle your fancy, what else would you like to see covered?


I generally stick to vendor agnostic, technology focused concepts/protocols. For ideas, in the past I've offered continuing my TCP series (pracnet.net/tcp), unpacking DNS, Anycast, Traceroute, Interviews with experts, or a slew of other things.

If you want one of those, let me know with a comment and vote "4" in the poll.

Thanks all. <3

PS: Since I _know_ it's going to be asked... *Module 2 of my Networking course is 80% complete.* I'm releasing the first few videos to purchasers of the full course in the next week or two. Details: pracnet.net/networking. I do not yet know whether I will release Module 2 to Youtube. I've found a lot of plagiarized versions of Module 1 🤷‍♂️, and am a little apprehensive.

Routing Protocols in Depth would be wonderful

Im not sure... have you done a Spanning Tree Protocol deep dive? That would be amazing 🙏

I subscribed your channel a year ago but I haven't been seeing your videos.. I discontinued watching them....now I am here Again to Strengthen my Networking Basics.

Would love a BGP series like the OSPF one. From the list I'd day IPsec deep dive

@ankitgupta-uf6xx

can you please make videos on concepts like VLANs and BGP in depth and also STP,RSTP.MSTP PVST+. OSPF and network fundamentals videos were amazing . i have learned so much from OSPF videos.

After learning OSPF zero to hero series , I am confident on OSPF. Can you please create zero-to-hero series for BGP next.

Hi, How about a wireless networking course (802.11x protocols, RF and channel planning, etc). Any plans for a holiday season discount on the TLS course this year? Or a subscription to all courses or anything like that? Keep up the great work.

I'm fascinated by IPSec, but most material I find on it just complicates it, I think. I think you'd do a great job with it. That said, I just don't know if it's as relevant as cryptography.

IpSEC would be AMAZING
