[Year 12 SofDev] SRS needed

[Kevork Krozian]

Mark,

The OSI is key fundamental of Cisco CCNA semester 1.
The mystery for me with the focus on Layer 1 ( physical layer ) is that it is concerned with electrical and signalling standards eg. RJ45 TIA/EIA 568A and 568B cabling ( crossover UTP cables etc) .
Why this is the focus I am not sure. Maybe someone can explain this.
I would have thought layers 2 (frames on Ethernet , encapsulation on WANs), 3 ( ip addressing and routing ) and 4 ( ports eg. 80 for www, 23 for telnet etc  )  would be much more interesting and meaningful for students.


Kind Regards

There's no SRS there yet, but there will be soon.  That's my next target after I get to grips with OSI.

Conference presenters: Please will at least one of you produce an SRS as an example for the rest of us?

OR -- would some brave soul upload one to this list so we can examine it and learn more.

Perhaps there is one already on Mark's website?

My cow died on this day two years ago.  I know because I noted it in my dairy.
