Hello, and blessings to you and yours. I was offered an IT Tech position (while working as a Passenger Service Agent at the Airport) and accepted the challenge. When we had to set up new counters, we needed the Airport Network admin to set up our connections. 😮 i was inspired by his work. I looked into Networking, found your videos and thought "This is the job I want to do 😊" Now I'm enjoying and learning from your Videos because I hope 🙏🏾 to have a job atmosphere like yours. Thanks again, and God Bless.
What a blessing from God! I'm glad you enjoy the videos. I make them to show what *I* do as a network admin. Your job could be very different. May God bless you in your new role! God bless!
@NetworkAdminLife Thank you, sir, for your blessings. When I saw a switch in action and applied the Ethernet cables to the assigned ports. I wanted to learn how to do that and more. Now I have a Cisco Router, and switch to train at home. Packet Tracer is my new gaming app 🤣 to learn
Been there and done that a few times in my IT career. It sucks but important thing is keep good notes on the configuration settings so it'll be matter of copying and pasting them in if you can't reload the backed up configuration file.
Absolutely. I keep a blank configuration template handy and we do back up configurations each night. It may have been faster to just remove the new switch unconfigure the old switch and then restore from backup. However, I just decided to forge ahead and complete the work we were trying to do. Luckily the impacted staff were very understanding and appreciative of the impromptu break we gave them. God bless!
Great and informative video! What more wisdom and knowledge could you ask for? By the way I'm familiar with the Da Vinci surgical systems, my dad had a appendix surgery removal done by that exact same system, really impressive technology.
This proves we are human and not AI robots. We have to thank a certain person upstairs for keeping us human and allowing us to make a mistake now and again, I know I have. I had a job many years ago and I would fit self locking locks on security vehicles, one time I had to show a group how to do this, and after fitting the locks and connecting to power and closing the doors ‘my heart sank, moment was the keys were inside not in my hand.
Exactly. I always like to say I'm the best Network Admin available in this price range. :-) If they want a better guy they can sure find him but they will have to pay him more. Your story reminds me of taking my girlfriend to a drive in movie theater on a data. (Yes, I'm that old) and I locked my keys in the car! My girlfriend and I had to walk back to the concession stand to use a pay phone (yes, I'm that old) to call my dad to drive out with a spare set of keys and unlock the door. He was grinning ear to ear. God bless!
Well, it's more like adding more ports to your existing switch. Each new switch that is added to the stack becomes like an additional module in the existing switch. So think of the original switch as having one slot with 48 network ports, then you add a switch to the stack and now it's a switch with two slots of 48 ports. And the management port stays on the original switch in the stack, also called the "master". God bless!
In this case I could not. If the switch had just died and we replaced it, I could just copy and paste the config in with no changes. However, we added another switch to the stack so all the port numbers change. So before where we would have port 1,2,3, etc, now we have port 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, and also port 2:1, 2:2, 2:3 and so on. Easier to just copy and paste selectively and edit while doing so. It takes longer but less mess to clean up later. God bless!
Recorded this one at home in my bedroom. Linux Mint is my distro of choice. Only because I can find an even simpler distro. Love Linux but I want it to just work, I don't want to mess around with it to make it work. It's my work laptop, dual boot. God bless!
I would never hire anybody that “does not really know” o “not sure how this works”!!! BTW: Cross connects do not exist anymore as the ports can automatically flip the Tx and Rx pins! But this is what you get for getting good enough people that have an idea but can never be a truer expert as they obviously don’t have that drive or pride!
Thank you for posting this video, sir. It’s great seeing computer networking in an actual work environment rather than a textbook. Very practical info
Glad you enjoyed it! God bless!
@@NetworkAdminLife sir Merry Christmas?

Very informative review. Thanks and God Bless 🙏
Thanks for watching! God bless you as well.
Another great video!
Glad you enjoyed it! God bless!

They are rolling the new one off the truck at the loading dock as I type this. Hoping for a hitless install. God bless!
Oops, big misshap. Well, at least the firmware got updated, cheer up! Thanks for the video!
Welllll...... Actually, it got upgraded in the wrong direction. I'll have to update the firmware on it this week. God bless!

I don't think you're part of the club until you've done something like this at least once :)
There's those that have and those that will. Absolutely. The club meets Thursday nights. Bring cookies. :-) God bless!
Don’t beat yourself up to much over that. We’re all humans. God bless
True. And it was a good learning experience for my young protege, Tariq. God bless!
"my heart just sunk". Been there :(
There is a saying in the aviation community; "There's those that have and those that will." Meaning, we'll all be there at some point. God bless!
Is it the concept of converting a all physical unit into a logical unit I mean configuring a management inerface to act as master one
Well, it's more like adding more ports to your existing switch. Each new switch that is added to the stack becomes like an additional module in the existing switch. So think of the original switch as having one slot with 48 network ports, then you add a switch to the stack and now it's a switch with two slots of 48 ports. And the management port stays on the original switch in the stack, also called the "master". God bless!
Can you copy the entire backedup config file and paste it into the command line?
In this case I could not. If the switch had just died and we replaced it, I could just copy and paste the config in with no changes. However, we added another switch to the stack so all the port numbers change. So before where we would have port 1,2,3, etc, now we have port 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, and also port 2:1, 2:2, 2:3 and so on.

Did you record this from a different place and system? Different background and a Linux distro.

Hi sir.. I'm higher Secondary Education passed and ccna ccnp course completed now I do start the IT company network Engineer job role..?
I would recommend some college as well. But if you can get a foot in the door in any IT role you should try. God bless!
@@NetworkAdminLife Thank you so much sir..🙏
What OS are you using ?
That would be Linux Mint. Not sure of the exact version. It's been a couple of years so I probable need to update it. God bless!
Enable stacking all and use that new feature Instant Stacking

I definitely didn't do my homework on this one. Meh, it happens. God bless!
I would never hire anybody that “does not really know” o “not sure how this works”!!!
BTW:
Cross connects do not exist anymore as the ports can automatically flip the Tx and Rx pins!
But this is what you get for getting good enough people that have an idea but can never be a truer expert as they obviously don’t have that drive or pride!
And yet, I have this job and you don't. Huh. Go figure. God bless!
