can anybody send me details on networking? want to be a network expert.?

Question

need material like books and websites that deals on networking.

Answer 1

Go to school....
They have 9 month tech colleges you can go to for that sort of thing...YOU have to have an education to get anywhere....

Answer 2

As everyone else said, go to school. But if you want to be sure if networking is right for you, read this:

http://www.tcpipguide.com/free/t_toc.htm

If you can get through that, you're ready for networking. But until you have a degree and certifications (CCNA, MSCE, etc...) You will not be a desireable hire. Companies really look hard at these things now days and you want to take away any excuse not to hire you.

Answer 3

Yes, school should be where you want to go... You can always search for Network+ books, study them, and take the CompTIA Network+ test.

Answer 4

Start with the OSI Model and learn everything you can about it,

http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Monitor/3131/ne/osimodel.html

Then do a Google on "networking", "OSI Model", also go to http://www.cisco.com They have lots of free info on networking.

Then get an entry level network support job some where.

Have fun and be safe.

Answer 5

www.hotcourses.com (there you can find courses to acquire your desired knowledge)

www.cisco.com (they have a lot of information there)

Do practice. Use todo magazines to get hints and start to learn by yourself, searching for answers within tech forums ans using google to find it.
Get 2 computers and start to create your own network.
Start with something simple and then, go to something advance:
- 2 computer seeking each other using TCPIP as a protocol
- 1 server windows 2000 and client windows
- 2 servers windows talking each other
- Linux server install
