How to better understand the nuts and bolts of networking/sysadmin and etc?
by linuxuser371038 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6P60D)
I have started reading Network Warrior but it is already going over my head with talk of switches and frames.
I have never come across such discussion in my 3 decades or so of using computers.
Maybe it will make more sense when they get to sections on ping and routes but so far it is not helping my understanding much.
Any other recommendations? Linux focused.
I have used remote servers, setup home networking, setup vpns, am able to scrape by setting things up with those respective things but always feel like I have no idea what is going on under the hood and have to ask for help as soon as something goes wrong with routing issues.
How to demystify the nuts and bolts of networking and how computers on the internet communicate with each other?
