Got access to a simulator. I can pretend to log into Cisco switches and routers. Access them through a command line interface (CLI). The problem is that there is a whole language I got to learn. It also feels like a wonky version of MS-DOS.
Just when I thought all was lost, I got ahold of a "cheat sheet" full of Cisco commands. I was off to the races ... until I discovered the cheat sheet was locked. It was distributed in the form of a PDF. But the file had security turned on, and I could not even print out the damn thing.
Well PDFUnlock came to the rescue. My file was a small one. PDFUnlock let's you break the password for free online. That's a good URL to have if you get into a bind like I Was. All right. Watch out world. I am gaining networking power as we speak.
