My Home Lab as of Now

Ever since I was in High School I was fascinated with computer networking. I moved on to college to persue my Associates in Applied Science concentrating in Network Administration.

I found that the Hardware side of Network Administration fascinated me the most and it help persuade me to build my home lab.
