<\/p>\nI am starting an ongoing series involving a semi-static set of devices.\u00a0 These will involve different tutorials on things such as OSPF, cambium configuration, vlans, and other topics.\u00a0 Below is the general topology I will use for this lab network.\u00a0 As things progress I will be able to swap different\u00a0manufacturers and device models into this scenario without changing the overall topology.\u00a0 We may add a device or two here and there, but overall this basic setup will remain the same.\u00a0\u00a0This will allow you to see how different things are configured in the same environment without changing the overall scheme too much.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We will start with very basic steps.\u00a0 How to login to the router, how to set an IP address, then we will move to setting up a wireless bridge between the two routers.\u00a0 Once we have that done we will move onto setting up OSPF to enable dynamic routing.\u00a0 After that the topics are open.\u00a0 I have things like BGP planned, and some other things. If there is anything you would like to see please let me know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
