Why the CCNA Matters for Me Specifically I&amp;rsquo;ve been managing Cisco Meraki, Fortinet, and UniFi networks across 40+ client organizations for four years. I can configure a FortiGate firewall policy, troubleshoot a VLAN trunk, set up a site-to-site VPN, and triage a flapping BGP session at 2am. The CCNA doesn&amp;rsquo;t teach me most of this — I&amp;rsquo;m already doing it.</description></item></channel></rss>
