Do you know how to create several virtual machines? Do you have a lab available at your institution?
I spend most of my time outside the classroom, but I have plenty of free moments at work.
Understanding the idea of submerging is quite straightforward once you watch enough videos and practice. As mentioned before, packet traces provide a realistic experience when working with Cisco routers and switches.
I’d consider purchasing an old switch from eBay and simply use it, any standard layer3 model works as long as it’s not too outdated. But for the exam, hands-on experience isn’t necessary—it’s mostly theoretical. In fact, practical work can be risky; you often have to tackle real commands that you wouldn’t use in practice, and you’d just run a quick test. Real-world tasks rely heavily on math. The best advice is to learn how to sketch a subnetting grid like a cheat sheet. When you start the exam, immediately draw your cheat sheet and use it to find answers for the rest of the test!
