    Hey guys, once again I'm pounding sand in the desert with the military. Out here we're able to take Security+ and get certified.

    My friend talked me into taking the class with him and the test needs to be done within 30 days of the class. Needless to say I'm drinking out of a firehose here.

    Is it possible to setup a network on VMWare Player or Virtualbox so that I can practice the things I'm learning? This class is for two weeks (today was day two) for four hours a night. I'd like to get the most out of it. But at the moment it's overwhelming. Mostly because I need to learn so much terminology and I never took A+ or Networking+.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    @Johnksss@iBUYPOWER, any suggestions? Hope your doing well man! Been a long time!


    P.S. - I only have access to the computer in my signature below. It's what I'd setup any virtual stuff I can to practice. I also only have an Android phone and Android tablet with me.


    PPS: I may be in over my head with this one...lol
