Hi friends,

Can anyone tell me what are the peripheral fields related to networking.

Please do help me.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Help

Hi,

I'm an electrical engineer, but I entered the field of networking. You cant imagine the amount of information exist on this field, also the updates this science has every short time.

So, I guess you should specialize in something. In general there is a software part and a hardware part, you can go to what really like, but as an electrical engineer I recommend to enter the hardware part.

If you like administrative stuff, you head to the software, and take Microsoft certifications.

And if you like the hardware part, go to Cisco certifications, they are the best in the business.
