2.2 kept going on and on never completing. I did like 12+ exercises haha. It told me 3 at the start.

Thanks for bringing this up. I probably need to make this a bit clearer. As soon as you see the "CLOSE" button appear in any lesson, it means that the lesson is complete. (For 2.2 you'll still get the option to continue with more questions for as long as you'd like, but as soon as you see the "CLOSE" button appear after finishing a question, it means that the lesson is complete.

Feedback: There is a typo in 3rd step of 2.1 where it states
Each device has been configured with an _____ from the network 10.103.155.0. At this point, every computer is able to ping every other computer.
I believe we are missing IP Address or something relatable

Hi Jared,
Thanks for letting me know. You're right, it's missing the words "IP Address". The change will be updated shortly.

Hi
5.VLANS&TRUNKS --> A deeper look at trunk interfaces
"Check the section where VLANs are defined on this switch? VLANs 101, 102 and 103 are defined on the switch, but VLAN 200 is not."
However, if you had created VLAN 200 right before this question, it is already reflected and automatically highlighted in the switch terminal window.

Thanks for pointing this out, Andrii! The lesson has been modified to not allow you to create VLAN 200 on the switch until instructed to do so :).
(Since the intent of that portion is to demonstrate what happens if a VLAN is allowed on a trunk link without having been created on the switch.)

Section 4.3 (Router-on-a-stick), Activity Break 6
The hint for configuring RTR 1 reads as follows:
int gi0/0.10 [Hide]
encapsulation dot1Q 10 native
ip address 10.3.1.1 255.255.255.0
Shouldn't it be 10.3.0.1? My understanding is that 10.3.1.1 belongs to VLAN 20.
Thanks!

Thanks so much for pointing that out Dmitry! It has been corrected now.

Lesson 4.4 (Switched Virtual Interfaces - Part 1): didn't work for me. I couldn't create a virtual interface on the switch. After a few attempts, I clicked on "Perform this for me". This time, the interfaces were created successfully, and the appropriate IP addresses were assigned, but when I tried to ping computers on different VLANs, the pings failed. I'm using Safari 10.1.2 on MacOS 10.10.5.

Hi Dmitry,
Thank you very much for reporting this. A recent update to Layer 3 features introduced a bug. This has now been corrected. Thanks again for reporting it!

Hi Dmitry, also, please note that on Safari, auto-correct is enabled by default. ("vlan" gets auto-corrected to "van"). Were you getting an "Invalid input detected at '^' marker" error?

2 new lessons on Switched Virtual Interfaces have been added to this course recently. As always, please report any errors or inconsistencies.
Any kind of feedback is always welcome! :)

The course covers minor details usually not found elsewhere. It's very interactive. You guys have put utmost effort for the development of this course. Thanks for providing it free. Are there any plans for new topics in new future ?
Connected Dots Online•
Thanks for the feedback, Anil! You're welcome. (Yes, the little details sometimes make a big difference while troubleshooting complex networks.)
Yes, there are plans to develop more topics.
