Network Automation Training Cisco DevNet DEVASC 200-901 Course: bit.ly/2ZmKu5q My courses: learn.gg/dataknox Motivational speech from Eric Thomas: • Eric Thomas | Motivati... How bad do you want it?!?
Thank you for the kind mention of my book, Knox! 🙏In case people missed your Tweet, the third edition is indeed due to be out on January 31st on Packt, and shortly after on Amazon. It is also on sale (pre-sale) for the ebook version for $5 (86% off) until the end of January, www.packtpub.com/cloud-networking/mastering-python-networking-third-edition. You can purchase the ebook now for $5 and it will be delivered to your account when it is available. 😀
Thanks for this Data. Right now im just a day to day Network Admin that deals mostly with a lot of switches in a large environment. I do some Call Manager and Unity too. I was trying to sort out my next path to prepare for Automation and Cloud. I was thinking AWS at first but I am really feeling this because it will help make me more valuable at my job and elsewhere. I have CCENT right now but I think this will really bridge the gap with the skills I have now and helping me get to the point where I can do so much more in a cisco enterprise or maybe even cloud environment. Gonna check this out.
I think that’s a great call! It’s also an easier way to get the fundamentals of code and automation down because it will be using a familiar topic - networking!
Yes thats what I was thinking. The only thing is I dont see a lot of demand for it on the job board but then again its new and a lot of people dont understand it yet. I think as time goes on more people will see how valuable it can be. Looking forward to learning from you.
True, HR and leadership haven’t caught up yet. But that doesn’t mean can’t automate and integrate now! Create efficiencies now and watch tour career take off
Yea I can see it day to day because we have a guy that automates a lot of monitoring stuff on a Linux box. My boss was wondering if our server VMware guy could virtualize the box and maybe one of us can learn linux to be able to do a lot of that. Years ago I used to work in a data center with an application monitoring group and we used to use a tool called HP Loadrunner. The top programmer guy in our group used to show me some basic stuff on creating an app and creating automation scripts. I think it was C and C++ stuff. Anyway we have to start looking at Networking in a whole new way I guess. Im just getting tired of running all over a 700 acre refinery doing redundant stuff. Trying to steer my way through : )
@@DataKnox I know its been a while but I just wanted to let you know that I am gonna take the Azure fundamentals test next week because one of the refineries our company aquired is using it and we have moved a few apps to it. I was gonna maybe do encore, then enauto then devcor but maybe I should jusd go devnet associate and then later ccnp devor maybe? Just wanted to get your opinion. Been really crazy because of COVID.
Hi Knox. Thanks for this wonderful video. It was very informational and helpful. The book suggestions are really great when there are tons of out there. Can you please put similar informational video on how to prepare for DevNet Specialist: IoT and related reference book?
thanks for the explanation and advices, Knox. Question: do you think it's ok to go for the CCNA devnet as a first Cisco certification? or is it better to take the "regular" CCNA fisrt?
It totally depends on your experience! If you have some Dev experience, it might actually be easier to tackle DevNet first. But if your end goal is to be a network engineer who can leverage automation, the CCNA is a must have
Hey, question for you I don’t it’s an old video so I don’t know if you’ll see this or not but in the middle of some Linux studies right now I want to get those certifications done. I took my CCN back in 2013 . I was planning on taking the definite associate, but was wondering should I retake the CNA first I even thought about just going over the material for the CNA, and then jumping into devnet. Then, if I enjoy it, I’ll take the NP of the definite so then all I need is the encore to get my CCNX those are your thoughts of any insight from anybody would be great. Just really wanna know if I should actually of take the new CCNE before jumping into this taking my next Linux exam in about a week.
I'm ultra new to the world of IT. I have read 11 chapters of network plus and covered topics till IPV6. I'm changing my mind on my path as I'm going to hit A+, then CCNA, find a helpdesk job, then hit Devnet from CB nuggets; I'm already learning Python from Codecademy. Should I take a course in bash scripting and learn Linux(centos) as a prerequisite for Cisco Devnet?
Hi Knox, does the CBT Devnet course provide a cert of completion before even finishing the course? Im not asking as if to cheat but this way I can request a reimbursement from my employer sooner than later.
He sir, i came across your channel and i just got glued to it. however, i am a struggling stage of my IT knowledge and pursuit. i got certified with Microsoft but that was a long time ago now i am considering Cisco. python , just confused , i was wondering if i can just find a IT path i can take that is relevent to today's world. i am really more than willing to commit the next 1 year to getting on track
Well it has to be something that’s going to hold your interest. It’s a marathon - not a sprint. Something that you know you’re going to love for the long haul. Maybe that’s networking. Maybe it’s cloud. Maybe it’s sysadmin. Maybe it’s code. I always tell people to start with networking because if the network is broken, everything is broken
Knox, I am able to access internet from my GNS3 VM and also from the router and switches, dows that mean my VSCode is integrated with GNS3 and how to access Cisco Sandbox LABS in VSCode as you have done in your DEVASC videos...I have CBTN susbscription however in those videos it is not explained how to integrate VSCode with Sandbox.
Hi Knox.. I have an experience of more of twelve years in networking and 3 years in operational security.. Unfortunately i did not think to pass R&S certification.. Do you think that going directly to devnet certification is better for me.. Since i have already a solid base in R&S? Thanks
If you’re interested in going into network automation, I definitely think you are safe to start the DevNet cert since you have so many years experience
Hatem Kahlaoui there’s a lot of overlap with DEVASC there. I recorded a lot of that module for CBTN. Check this out th-cam.com/video/C6JUxeqMXTo/w-d-xo.html
Difficult to say since I spent a huge amount of time creating our course for it. It really comes down to PRACTICE. Read the documentation and try to make scripts of your own. Check them into source control. Things like that will make the difference

Awesome deal!!
When you first became a trainer on CBT I was like "who is this guy?", but your content is legit. Just passed DevNet Associate today
Great video. So excited to dive in but I have some other cert goals to tackle first. Congratulations on passing the 1K subscriber mark.
Thanks!!

do you have a video talking about job opportunities for DevNets?

Hey there! CBT Nuggets issues a certificate of completion for completing the playlist. Hope that helps!
Tried to subscribe to CBTNuggets but "no service" in Mexico...

@@DataKnox thank you, i appreciate your reply. i will start with ccna then.
Cisco book, please share with me????
I have completed my python and machine learning but I wnt to do job in networking wht shld I go for devnet or ccna. Machine learning will b any use?
CCNA first, then DevNet! ML will always be useful for detecting anomalies - will go well with streaming telemetry
Hi Knox,
Can you please explain how to integrate VSCode with Cisco Sandbox and with GNS3 if someone is using GNS3.
You’ll want to bridge GNS3 out to your physical LAN. th-cam.com/video/6EXqnWRhkIE/w-d-xo.html

What is the prerequisite for this cirtification ? I had no prior knowledge so what are the basics I need to start with and take the exam?
There are no formal prerequisites to take the exam. It may help to know basic Python. Our course on CBT Nuggets covers the rest!
may i ask sir , what thing i should learn before taking the course on CBT for DevNet , should i know first how to code python ?
thanks
Definitely helps to have basic Python under your belt
@@DataKnox thanks sir, guess i need to start first with python before starting the series
Hi Knox.. I have an experience of more of twelve years in networking and 3 years in operational security.. Unfortunately i did not think to pass R&S certification.. Do you think that going directly to devnet certification is better for me.. Since i have already a solid base in R&S?

@@DataKnox.. Thanks a lot
@@DataKnox.. And what do you think about the automation module in ccnp encor
Hatem Kahlaoui there’s a lot of overlap with DEVASC there. I recorded a lot of that module for CBTN. Check this out th-cam.com/video/C6JUxeqMXTo/w-d-xo.html
I am having no programming experience how can I start?
Check out my video called How Much Python do you Need for DevNet Associate!!
How much time do you need to fully prepare for this exam ? An estimate please?
3-6 months
@@DataKnox Thank you, how many hours a day you dedicated for this exam?
Difficult to say since I spent a huge amount of time creating our course for it. It really comes down to PRACTICE. Read the documentation and try to make scripts of your own. Check them into source control. Things like that will make the difference
What is eligibility for this course
The course is on CBTNuggets. You can find my courses at learn.gg/dataknox
HI i am network protocol testing engineer , will this certification be useful for me ?//
Absolutely! Especially if you dig into PyATS - an automated testing tool!
@@DataKnox thank you!!!!!
