I passed my CCNA last January, in the form of ICND1 and 2, but I'm still learning from your videos! The explanation is clear and logical, really like it!
I am a 100% noob to cyber security/IT-related fields. I am currently in my first class for Cyber Security. This series has been SOOOO helpful!! I get excited for the quizzes because I actually understand what you are teaching ONLY because of the way you are teaching it. thank you so much!!❤ I am actually learning more with you than my college class😊
I always find it interesting with all the emphasis on cloud and wireless computing these days ; the general public often forget there is some serious hardware that’s the backbone of the internet. I’d be interested in a presentation about the global connections (undersea cables, cables to cities, satellites, etc) .
I worked on a network literally in a janitorial closet. The rack was next to a floor drain used by janitors. This was a silicon valley hospital pathology lab. They finally upgraded out of there in 1994.
I am following a lot of computer science channels. But this guy is simply my favorite teacher. I don't feel like I am watching an educational video ( which is what I do actually), I feel entertained and I am having fun. Networkchuck you are unique and awesome!

There's been a lot interest lately in using the new "bare metal switches" loaded with linux-based open networking software like SONiC for Spine and Leaf functions in a datacenter. How does one get involved with those? Or, how do you decide to use bare-metal hardware rather than offerings from Cisco or Juniper? I really like the concept of something like SONiC but it seems intimidating to get started with.
Great video, finally seeing folks interested in a Spine/Leaf Design or Clos Fabric ( Level 2), I have been designing Clos Fabrics since 2000, started with Catalyst 6509’s with 8 Spines using ECMP with some special tuning for hashing method like a pearson hash! If you’re are interested, contact me on LinkedIn!
youtube is not working for chinese. how can i do ? if i got these technology, but i can not network projects ,ONLY those chinese can do . china is not freedom market. how i working hard, but i can not get the job .
Hey, Chuck! Great video, I’m glad you covered data center networking. I’ve been a data-center technician, analyst and system admin, now I’m a data-center operations network engineer. Thanks to you, I’ve been able to dicier a lot of networking questions. I would like to see more coverage on data-center networking, it’s amazing and complex. Just to give you a side note, we are currently implementing a spine-leaf topology running bgp, underlays and overlays, etc.
We actually do connect two leaf nodes together using MLAG (Arista). However, only two per (pod). So they are in pairs. We currently use superspine -> spine -> leaf. And we have protocol switches within the racks the connect to the leafs. From the leafs up it’s all L3. And we use ECMP for the load balancing. Man, it be nice to chat with you about this sometime. But for now, hope the next video goes over ASNs lol.
Hey Chuck! I've worked as a data center tech at Softlayer/IBM for over 5 years. Thanks to your study tips, motivating videos, and hard studying these past 7 months I've just started my new network support engineer position last week! My birthday present next month will be to finally pass my CCNA. Thank you for all you do to keep us motivated during this tough year!
I would gladly pay for a course like this.. without a doubt. The way you pair your enthusiasm & passion for our industry with the great explanations & knowledge is phenomenal! We NEED strictly Network Chuck courses!!! Much love & peace!
I never tired of repeating it over and over again !!! THANK YOU CHUCK for teaching us in this pleasant way the structure of data center and giving us the knowledge of network devices that in Latin America are out of budget. This is the best CCNA course you can take and it's free !!! You are simply amazing !!!
It's pretty good how you're able to provide so much value and getting affiliations like that.. that's how it should be done. Man you're meant to be an IT guy & Coffee guy too ..
I just found you on youtube a week ago and love this content. I'm working on my CCNA because I fell into setting up Cisco networks for Data Center Physical Security systems. At first I was doing basics like setting up network management and vlans. But now they've gone full redundancy and I'm learning spanning tree and portfast commands as I go. I share in your enthusiasm for this and love learning more and more. Thanks for all the visual explanations and simplifying some pretty complex information. Great Job.
I am the network/server/telcom administrator of our company and the data center is 8 racks of servers, storage arrays, switches, and routers. We love virtual servers!
The first time I stepped into a data center I wondered if ear plugs were a requirement that I had missed. It's truly a crazy experience and most of the time here in PA they are located in the most obscure places you'd never imagine. Great video as always. Thank you Chuck.
The unassuming, unfiltered, unacademic way you explain this makes me feel like we're sitting at a coffee shop (plug intended) talking casually while you doodle over a napkin how these things work. Ever heard of the Feynman method? 'Cause you're doing it. This gives me faith in humanity, well done sir!!
I wish he made this CCNA series a year ago. when I was learning all this, it was so hard to understand. But he explains in such a great manner that he made it look like a piece of cake. I am watching this series again because he is such a good teacher.
I've worked in Datacenters for the last 13 yrs. I work on Network capacity ( Scaling). Thank you for your courses. They have helped quit a few Techs that I know
Omg this video was so helpful and further solidifies my progress. I didn’t understand this at all when I took my CCNA but now after 2 years of being a network engineer, this makes perfect sense. Thank you!
Thanks...! even though I have experience in the network field over 13 years, this is the wonderful explanation I ever heard regards to the 3-tier architecture.
I love the fact that you make it as real as possible and show us the actual hardware as it helps. Like the energy you bring probably the coffee beans that you sip in each video.
Your combination of knowledge and enthusiasm is so infectious. When I was in the Cisco academy course I got to tour a police HQ and university DC. Crazy stuff to see in person. Good way to nerd out!
Man the old saying is true! how good and interested you are in a subject in a way depends on your tutor. I just really got interested in networking, due to your teaching and mainly your "EXCITEMENT" dude! Keep Rocking and keep attracting people to the Networking world!!!
My man, I hope you realise how much of a good teacher you are. You have taken one of the driest topics and brought it to life. I feel I'll have to invite you to dinner when I'm set
Ive worked at a data center for the last 3 years and now have my interview for a data center technician :) thank you for making an awesome and valuable channel !!!!!!
For anyone complaining that CCNA only has a 3 year certification know that when I got my CCNA back in 2012 leaf/spine switches were not even talked about. The technology is moving ahead so fast that in 3 years so much can change. The cert is well worth it!
I lost my job because of covid and i'm going back to school in Networking IT. You videos helps me a LOT. I never comment but wanted to take time to thank you sincerely.
I managed to get into a tour of a supercomputer facility. It was fantastic! I'm just this humble sysdamin and everybody else there were research physicists and chemists and... basically the people who invent the cool shit we watch videos about. Then there's the inevitable "So what do you do?", to which my stock reply is "I reboot servers."
@@alrashidvillanueva1197 I didn't mean it that way... it was just humbling to be amongst a crowd of postdoctoral research scientists. I love every second of my job. :-)
Thank you Mr. Bearded Javaman ...been watching your videos for about 2 years now...I'm 6 months in working as a hardware operations engineer for a rapidly growing data storage company green is a great color lol
I currently take care of the chillers that provide 50 degree water through a data center keeping all of the equipment cool. I also work on all of the building automation for these buildings as well so learning the in depth workings of the networking has been so cool. It is very cool to walk through this data center looking at all of the servers and even the computer housing the AI for the school. I am planning to go for CCNA and more just to gain more knowledge and certs for the future. Keep up the great work sir!!!
I've been working in DCs for at least 5 years now and have seen a lot of things. I'm a senior tech for a fortune 500 company and work in the biggest in the region. LOTS of DWMA fiber, lots of routers. Tons of servers and exabytes of storage. I love what I do and wouldn't change anything.
What a fantastic, helpful, engaging, fun, and rewarding course! I'm still studying for my A+, and I started this series with the "subnetting" chapter, and then went back to the beginning. I'm so glad I did! Chuck is one of those gifted individuals who not only *really* understands what he's sharing, but you can tell that he loves to share what he knows, not least because he's really passionate about what he's sharing! Any of the videos for this course are excellent for seasoned veterans and novices alike. And every time I hear the "click" of an ethernet cable being plugged in, I will think of Chuck!
Thanks for this Course, Chuck! I am actually having a good time prepping for the CCNA. I look forward to learning much more from this series. You've got my like!
Great explanation Chuck! Thanks for your hard work and dedication in the IT Industry! I'm close to taking my exam for my Network+ then I'm going for my CCNA next. Love the energy!
Great video. I have worked in a datacenter and never knew this. It all comes together now. They would use the old network design en forget about redundant power. A switch would fail and so would the whole rack or racks. On hot summer days the hvac system could not cool enough en drives in raid arrays would fail by the hour because of the heat. Vps is the way to go and if you could ditribute them across different services and locations you have no worries. Not to mention server maintanance. Keep up the good job.
Thank you a bunch for the detailed video. I've watch /read probably 100hrs of videos and articles and although I've read about Clos networks and seen L3 switch hardware spec sheets before, I've never heard nor connected the dots that an L3 switch ~ routing functionality, i.e. utilizing IP and MAC addresses on a switch. Makes sense though when considering what would be needed to implement ECMP and VXLANs with the DC environment.
Yep, fixed server blades at the Carrier Center node here in Dallas TX. It was like a maze on each floor with all of the cages housing Corp, Gov and gaming servers. Mostly worked on HP for about 2 years. Needed a HP cert. You had to dress warm because it was COLD inside no matter what time on the year!!
I bet. When I worked at a local dried fruit company, I got a brief tour of our small data-center. looking back, its nothing special but as a newbie into the IT world, it was definitely awe inspiring. Just seeing a lot of equipment on network racks not knowing what it does was amazing.
What do data centers look like? Yes please! Thanks network chuck for your videos, they help a huge amount to a fella who can't afford these courses at the moment and is eager to learn. 👍
That was AMAZING!! Mind you a lot of what I learned prior to what was explained here was where I was laughed at. So I made my own rack NOT containing a load balancer or software till I now understand why this needs to be part of the network. So much to learn and remember with the fact that I have to forget about half of what I was taught in the past. Soon as cloud computing came out, things were just beginning to change faster and quicker. It still made it much cheaper to buy the old or replaced hardware. Thank you so much for the videos and all the work that you do and hand to us for free. I will not download your videos anymore though, hope that was not a "my bad" situation.
I work at a big company Data Center as intern and I will have an interview in a few days to be a full time employee, your videos are really helping me to get ready for it, thanks!
Hey Chuck, as an ex network/security engineer now working in IT Management (please don't hate me) I just wanted to say that your videos are so clear and concise. Your teaching methods are amazing. New subscriber from here on, wishing you all the best.
This is awesome! I am currently a math teacher. Contemplating switching to Cisco as we have a program for that in our school. This is very helpful. Thanks!
It is great learning hub on Networking.. Loved to watch your videos on CCNA track whose contents are designed systematically and full of knowledge on the relevant topic. I am an experienced It professional and used to develop applications in the begging and then started functional/administration related work on ERPs and have been refreshing my Network skills these days. Enjoying your technical videos and I have updated some tech skills through your lectures.
Best teacher i've seen online in 10 years of learning stuff!
Definitely agree he's motivating to say the least
Seriously !!! No one else has made this course more interesting that it already is for me !!
There is another channel Jeremy's ITLab
I found that guy is wonderful teacher. Anyone wants can check
4 real!
Can't agree more!

Yeah it’s 100x easier to learn something if you have good material and teacher. Most books and stuff are a nightmare to start off.
@@Larimuss ya this makes the books 10x more enjoyable to read imo.
He has this ability to personalise the content which is otherwise so mundane
I agree 100%
I always find it interesting with all the emphasis on cloud and wireless computing these days ; the general public often forget there is some serious hardware that’s the backbone of the internet. I’d be interested in a presentation about the global connections (undersea cables, cables to cities, satellites, etc) .
Yes!
Chuck is the most dad hipster I've ever met, constantly looks like he's suppressing the urge to call the audience Sport
Best comment ever.
haha
lol!
How you explain stuff and your sense of humour is the best way to teach people. And your contents are enjoyable to watch.
I worked on a network literally in a janitorial closet.
The rack was next to a floor drain used by janitors.
This was a silicon valley hospital pathology lab.
They finally upgraded out of there in 1994.
As someone that works in the data center environment, this is awesome.
Watching from inside a data center.
"Have YOU ever been INSIDE a data center?"
Yes.
What is the best position for a data center?
saame

lol Same. I'm in my Noc right now. I've probably handled more Cisco blade switches than home modems.
@U X I've literally heard stories of engineers camping in a colo. Ordering pizzas, pulling all nighters.
@@eon001 lucky for them they can actually order pizza. Im in a literal cave, they won't deliver :'(
Here I was just trying to set up a home network for the family and now thanks to the TH-cam algorithm I guess I'm gonna get my CCNA.
ROFL! And why not? :)
I am following a lot of computer science channels.
But this guy is simply my favorite teacher.

Я настолько плохо знаю английский язык, но автор преподносит информацию так, что я его интуитивно понимаю))) и ответы мои совпали на 100%.
Thank you. You packed the lesson into bitesize its easier for me (As a non tech person) to digest.
Watched this video like three times. I’m a union electrical apprentice and have worked in data centers several times. Supper cool my dude
Greatings from Germany. I love your way of explaining things. I helps me pretty good through my trainee time as system engineer.
Words cannot describe how grateful we are to you
I love your lessons , Chuck , you are best teacher that can explain and make it easy to understand,
GOOD LUCK BROTHER!
Your videos are so entertaining. I can watch them one after another, no problem. Amazing!!
man iam civil engineer,but your videos inspire me to learn networking, linux, ....etc Thank you very much
The way chuck explains things is really awesome. Keep going dude. Love from India.
Thanks for this Course, Chuck! I am actually having a good time prepping for the CCNA. I look forward to learning much more from this series. You've got my like!
Dude your level of positivity is SO motivating. I'm DEFINITELY getting my CCNA! (eventually)
Great explanation Chuck! Thanks for your hard work and dedication in the IT Industry!
I'm close to taking my exam for my Network+ then I'm going for my CCNA next.
Love the energy!
I just came here to understand datacenter, you motivated me to take CCNA certification. Awesome way of teaching.
1 rule of data center design I found: Always put the Core switch at the end of a row that is up against the wall/cage. (seen many times
Why is that?
Great video. I have worked in a datacenter and never knew this. It all comes together now. They would use the old network design en forget about redundant power. A switch would fail and so would the whole rack or racks. On hot summer days the hvac system could not cool enough en drives in raid arrays would fail by the hour because of the heat. Vps is the way to go and if you could ditribute them across different services and locations you have no worries. Not to mention server maintanance. Keep up the good job.
One of the best teacher i've seen online in 10 years of learning stuff, you put some much fun and details at the same time, thanks bro
Thank you a bunch for the detailed video. I've watch /read probably 100hrs of videos and articles and although I've read about Clos networks and seen L3 switch hardware spec sheets before, I've never heard nor connected the dots that an L3 switch ~ routing functionality, i.e. utilizing IP and MAC addresses on a switch. Makes sense though when considering what would be needed to implement ECMP and VXLANs with the DC environment.
Yep, fixed server blades at the Carrier Center node here in Dallas TX. It was like a maze on each floor with all of the cages housing Corp, Gov and gaming servers. Mostly worked on HP for about 2 years. Needed a HP cert. You had to dress warm because it was COLD inside no matter what time on the year!!
I am digging your videos. I'm a software engineer but highly intrigued by network engineering and you teach me hours worth of stuff in minutes.
Your channel is the best network channel.
first time to a data center was to a phone and internet provider data center and it was amazing.
I bet. When I worked at a local dried fruit company, I got a brief tour of our small data-center. looking back, its nothing special but as a newbie into the IT world, it was definitely awe inspiring. Just seeing a lot of equipment on network racks not knowing what it does was amazing.
Man you are like the best teacher i never had
Thank you very much for all the cool video information, it is because of you that I went to learn about Networking !
What do data centers look like? Yes please! Thanks network chuck for your videos, they help a huge amount to a fella who can't afford these courses at the moment and is eager to learn. 👍
The best teacher of all time!!! Thank you man!
That was AMAZING!! Mind you a lot of what I learned prior to what was explained here was where I was laughed at. So I made my own rack NOT containing a load balancer or software till I now understand why this needs to be part of the network. So much to learn and remember with the fact that I have to forget about half of what I was taught in the past. Soon as cloud computing came out, things were just beginning to change faster and quicker. It still made it much cheaper to buy the old or replaced hardware. Thank you so much for the videos and all the work that you do and hand to us for free. I will not download your videos anymore though, hope that was not a "my bad" situation.
I found this channel last night and I can't wait to binge on other content. I wish Chuck was one of my teachers in school. Thanks Chuck!
I have to say you are amazing!!!! I am crazy about your videos! Just cannot stop watching!!
I work at a big company Data Center as intern and I will have an interview in a few days to be a full time employee, your videos are really helping me to get ready for it, thanks!
How did your interview go ?
Dude you're gifted at teaching! I'm obtaining your lessons so quickly.
11:06 "cabling nightmare" ...reminds me of CoreSite's LA1 / One Wilshire data center
Hey Chuck, as an ex network/security engineer now working in IT Management (please don't hate me) I just wanted to say that your videos are so clear and concise. Your teaching methods are amazing. New subscriber from here on, wishing you all the best.
Perfect explanation. Quick and easy to understand. Awesome work Chuck! 👍

“Click click, I want my website to be there and it’s happens” classic chuck
This is awesome! I am currently a math teacher. Contemplating switching to Cisco as we have a program for that in our school. This is very helpful. Thanks!
gotta love Chuck's enthusiasm
Just found this channel and it's now my favourite. Amazing
It is great learning hub on Networking.. Loved to watch your videos on CCNA track whose contents are designed systematically and full of knowledge on the relevant topic. I am an experienced It professional and used to develop applications in the begging and then started functional/administration related work on ERPs and have been refreshing my Network skills these days. Enjoying your technical videos and I have updated some tech skills through your lectures.
I have watched some network courses but this dude is the on key with teaching. Keep up the great work and thank you
