[Video] How a Packet moves through the Internet -- (plus a bonus answer to a very common Interview Question)
Author Summary

Post Body

Hello friends,

I've created the capstone video to my Networking Fundamentals series. The video (and entire series, in fact) is available for free on Youtube.

In this video we show you Everything that happens for a packet to move through the Internet. You'll follow a packet on it's journey between two hosts, through switches and routers. All the while we'll show you how each device uses a Routing Table, ARP Table, and MAC Address Table to process data.

As a bonus, I spend the last few minutes of the video talking through a very common Network Engineering interview question: "What happens when you type 'www.google.com' into a web browser?".

I've interviewed (and been interviewed) 100's of Network Engineer candidates, and in nearly all cases a question similar to the above has come up.

There are time stamps in the description if you want to jump around.

Hope you get a lot out of this video. Open to hearing feedback (positive or negative). Cheers.
