Optional lab today (18Nov09)

Today’s lab is completely optional.  You may attend lab at the regular time if you wish to do lab #10.  If you chose not to attend lab, your grade will not be damaged in any way.

Should we meet for lab?

There are a number of CIS-2151 (Networks 1) people going to New York this week. The question on the table is, should we cancel lab this week and start fresh when people get back from the break? Email, tweet, call the course phone #, or post in the forums.

Fixed lecture 9

After a number of complaints and people saying they didn’t listen to lecture 9 because it was broken; I fixed it. Go back in the archives or re-download the lecturecast and you should not hear any blank spots. Don’t forget to vote on the site for when and how you want exam #2.

Facelift

Skoda.net has had the same theme for a while now and I’ve decided to update the site a bit. Everything still should work the same, there’s still a link to the forums in the menu at the top. I just wanted to do something new. I will be swapping over to a holiday theme after Thanksgiving, then I think I’ll keep this one around for a while.

The how and where of exam #2

We need to take exam #2 once we complete the layer 3 and 4 discussion.  Lecture 10 will be the end of the layer 4 topics (tcp, udp, congestion control, and firewalls) and lab #10 is the last layer 4ish lab.  I have posted a poll in the forums and I would like feed back since you are the people who need to take the exam.  The options are: take home exam next week, in lab exam next week, or a take home exam during the Thanksgiving break.

Vote now and if there is overwhelming support for one option, that’s what I’ll go with.  If I don’t hear from anyone I’ll post the exam as a take home exam over the break.

Lecture 9 stands as is.

It appears that I deleted the clips in the left ear track at the beginning of the lecture. Please listen to this lecture as I’m not going to re-do the whole lecture just to get the first two minutes back, especially since this time is typically spent answering questions.

I’m relistening to lecture 9 now and taking notes, if I missed anything testable I’ll ensure its in lecture 10. Please email me if you have questions.
