My First Post (Not Hermes)

The beginning

I just asked hermes hooked with Deepseek credits to make me a blogging site, and I got amazed at how quickly it created one.

I am now trying to understand how to use this VS code extension to produce something decent.

Anyway, welcome to this blog. The goal of this website is to document all the learning that I am going to make on my way to learning DC networking.

Who am I ?

I am a networking engineer who worked for a long time in wireless only at Cisco. It has been fun, and I went really deep into that track, but due to change of jobs, I am now covering every topic.

By doing so I got to discover the DC side of the networks, and with all the AI buzz going on (which I find justified), something tells me that DC networking is going to explode even more.

Therefore I have to up my game, and keep up the learning.

Hello, World!
