When trying to debug OSPF issues recently I found a set of excellent video tutorials from Darrell Root: https://www.youtube.com/c/DarrellRoot – I believe this is his website: https://networkmom.net/CiscoHandsOnTraining/ He has a playlist of videos called Cisco Hands-On Training: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLueKg14298FzreJSTGtMFIGdu10GLnT6z I found his videos super helpful, and a very clear explanation of how OSPF works, and how […]

We also look into how me can make messages quicker to distribute. For this code we use the trio functionality to wait for limited time for a task to complete, by using […]

We build out the functionality to receive messages, then distribute them to all connected users. For this part we use Trio’s nurseries to start up new running tasks: https://trio.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference-core.html#nurseries-and-spawning We use the nursery.start_soon() function to kick off new tasks […]
Series Part 1: https://jaytuckey.name/2021/07/22/trio-tutorial-simple-tcp-chat-program-part-1/ In part 2 we look at making a tool to assist with testing the TCP server we are building: We use the built-in python socket library in the testclient: https://docs.python.org/3/library/socket.html Got any questions?

I’ve made a video about making a simple TCP-based program using Python and Trio. The video is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JM1hgjLV-A The features I plan to build are: each user has a long running tcp connection user is asked for name on connection user sends message each other connected user receives the message In part 1 we […]
I’ve made a series of videos exploring the Internet Protocol Suite, and how it is used to make a connection to a website. It’s a deep dive into the stack, explaining all the way down to the ethernet frames that a computer sends on the local link.

Then network should be a […]
