In some ways, the hardest networking course you will

ever take.

you have seen them multiple times.
Learning networking is like trying to herd cats. No one great
place to start.
The material this semester will make much more sense in
later semesters. The more you learn about other areas,
the more a certain topic makes sense.
A lot of, You will learn more about that later.
A lot of, Good question, but there is no short answer right
now.
Sometimes, See me after class and I can explain it.
