Back from Narbik’s Bootcamp in Pasadena

I think I have a list of to-do's esp when it comes to things like IPv6, QoS, Security and Multicast. You gotta love the way Narbik teaches, no powerpoint no computer...

He thinks that if we know how BGP works then it won't be hard to work with BGP. After the lecture, we have about 260 pages of labs!...
