On-site studyPanagiss + jdepew88

Amalgamated topic guides (1)

One unified study guide per topic — synthesized from Panagiss CCNAmd and jdepew88 markdown, cross-checked with Jeremy's IT Lab, official Cisco exam topics, and on-site lessons. Not side-by-side copies: deduplicated, exam-focused notes.

Free printable cheat sheets

Reference charts by Jeremy Stretch (PacketLife.net — no longer active), hosted on The IT Cave. Originally free to download; we link to hosted copies for study convenience.

Network topologies

Physical vs logical topology reference with diagrams — bus, star (hub vs switch), ring, mesh, point-to-point, and hybrid. Includes the classic CCNA trap: physical star + logical bus.

Study charts (2)

Reference tables from your notes repo — administrative distance, CIDR conversion, STP port states, OSPF neighbors, FHRP, and more. Duplicates removed.

Panagiss CCNAmd topics

Supplementary markdown guides — amalgamated on-site with jdepew88 markdown into unified topic pages. Figures are embedded in matching lessons.
