About the Author

Allan Johnson entered the academic world in 1999 after 10 years as a business owner/operator to

dedicate his efforts to his passion for teaching. He holds both an MBA and an M.Ed. in occupational

training and development. He is an information technology instructor at Del Mar College in Corpus

Christi, Texas. In 2003, Allan began to commit much of his time and energy to the CCNA

Instructional Support Team providing services to Networking Academy instructors worldwide and cre-

ating training materials. He now works full time for the Academy in Learning Systems Development.

About the Technical Reviewers

Bruce R. Gottwig has spent most of his professional career teaching both at the K–12 and post-

secondary levels. He earned an M.Ed. in Educational Technology and is currently working toward an

Ed.D. in Educational Leadership. He is currently the curriculum lead and instructor for the Computer

Information Technology Network support degree and certification program at Montana State

University–Great Falls. Since 1998 he has also been an instructor and program director for the

Montana State University–Great Falls Local, Regional Cisco Networking Academy and Cisco

Academy Training Center for Sponsored Curriculum. He also teaches for Lesley University in its

M.Ed. program in Educational Technology. Throughout his years in educational technology, Bruce has

earned his CCNA, CCNP, CompTIA A+, Network+, Server+, and World Organization of Webmasters

CPW certifications and continues to learn and pass his learning to others.

Khalid Rubayi teaches courses for the Electronics and Computer Technology Department at Victor

Valley Community College in Victorville, California. He teaches all networking courses offered by the

Cisco Networking Academy, including CCNA, CCNP, Security, and Wireless. He has a BS and MS in

Electrical Engineering from Northrop University. He holds CCNA, CCNP, and CCAI certifications.

Tara Skibar , CCNP, was first introduced to networking in 1994 when she enlisted in the Air Force.

After serving for four years as a network technician, she became an instructor. Tara has worked with

major telecom companies in the United States and Europe. She has worked for the Cisco Networking

Academy since 2003 as a subject matter expert for the CCNP assessment development team and for

the CCNP certification exams. Most recently, Tara was the assessment lead for the newly modified

CCNA curriculum and traveled with a group of development folks to Manila, Philippines, for the

small market trial. Tara has a BS in Information Technology and is working toward a master’s in

Information Systems.

Linda C. Watson has been involved with the Cisco Networking Academy for ten years. She began as

a student in version 1.1, and in the last eight years has been an instructor and director of the Academy

program at Chandler-Gilbert Community College in Chandler, Arizona. After completing her own

career change, she especially enjoys helping students transition from novices in the networking field

to certified IT professionals. Linda has an MBA from Arizona State University and holds CCNA,

CCAI, A+, and MCSE certifications.

Dedication

For my wife, Becky. Without the sacrifices you made during the project, this work would not have

come to fruition. Thank you for providing me the comfort and resting place only you can give.

Acknowledgments

The reader will certainly benefit from the many hours devoted to this effort by the technical editors. A

team of no less than four people served admirably as my second pair of eyes, finding and correcting

technical inaccuracies and grammatical errors. Thank you Bruce Gottwig, Khalid Rubayi, Tara Skibar,

and Linda Watson for doing an outstanding job.

Mary Beth Ray, executive editor, you amaze me with your ability to juggle multiple projects at once,

steering each from beginning to end. I can always count on you to make the tough decisions.

This is my second project with Andrew Cupp as development editor. His dedication to perfection pays

dividends in countless, unseen ways. Thank you again, Drew, for providing me with much-needed

guidance and support. This book could not be a reality without your persistence.

Last, I cannot forget to thank all my students—past and present—who have helped me over the years

to create engaging and exciting activities and labs. There is no better way to test the effectiveness of

an activity or lab than to give it to a team of dedicated students. They excel at finding the obscurest of

errors! I could have never done this without all your support.
