The type of content you are providing to us, it's rare. We generally can't find these types of content on RU-vid. Thank you so much sir🙏

"if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail" Thanks again, David, & Ivan.

Love the interviews with Ivan! Good stuff

Another great video with Ivan. I've been in IT for 22 years as a full time job, but in computers since the mid 90's. What you said about adapting is spot on. I'm the infrastructure person (among other things) at my current job. I do everything from installing servers for our VMWare environment to configuring switches. Even though I don't think we will be full cloud I have learned AWS and Azure. Our devs use AWS and they only code. They don't have any idea how networking works. I think you will still need people who understand the different layers.

Wohoo! Didnt have to wait long to bring him back! Thank you 🙏

This was important as I am stuck between my previous career as a Network Engineer (SD-WAN) and current job as a Data Visualization and Analytics Engineer. Create the position if it does not exist!

I'd love to hear all David conversations with these gentlemen, unfortunately most of my time gets wasted due to difficulty understanding online classes :` (

Currently A.I is a consultancy or an initializer tool, that is, do something until complete, unless told to stop. Left to their own devices, machines do nothing forever . When A.I becomes self aware, inquisitive self learning, problem solving, event initializer and a creative entity in it own right, then that's it for employment. Hopefully, that's a long way off.

Thank you for this type of info. We need convo like this!

Hi, I would like to clarify, Level 1 Technical Support is not futureproofed due to decision trees, however, network-related Tech Support roles are safer as they require human intelligence?

This quote: “Just make sure you are different than the guy sitting to the left or right of you!” Great interview!

I LOVE THIS MAN! Ansible is #1 to me and use it in very specific ways to automate things no one else does. Great interview!

Thanks for the content sir ,looking forward to watch many as possible :)

Great content I'm getting ideas of the future and how to prepare for it👍👍👍

Thank you so Much Mr.David Bombal 💖

I like the way you teach sir... Thank you.. Subscribed done! Hello from Malaysia.. 😄😄

Thank you both for another great Video. I'm loving your interviews :)

Perfect and Awesome as Always!!!♥♥♥

Good evening!! I agree with ivan new technology will disappear certain jobs, but will also create new more rare and advanced.

I like this guy. Thanks for introducing hi. David!

-Great content. -As I saw in the interview that Chuck did with the CEO of the technical part of a big ISP she said that and I will put exactly what she said: - "Soon we will visualize the network infrastructure after the installation of the 5G transmitters, and after that 1 network engineer just using this SDN and SDWAN will do the work of 10 engineers today which will RELEASE THESE ENGINEERS FOR OTHER WORKS ". -In translating her entire sentence with a Brazilian say because "shes putting the crazy" in this of RELEASING ENGINEERS, in fact what she said is that whoever does not evolve and does not learn new technologies and Devnet will not work there and will be released (fired). -Our profession is just evolving as the Systems Administrator has evolved to still have the CLI as a base skill but as the infrastructure has evolved to Cloud why the medium has evolved, not that there are no local server add-ons but in small companies with local infrastructure o Cloud has not yet arrived as SDN Cisco has not yet arrived in all companies but the big ones are already there. -For this reason I am studying Python in a serious way to make my Devnet including thinking about making a certification in the Python language. -As was said by the teacher in the video IA do not end with professions they just reduce the work of those who know about the additional knowledge of operation of this technology beyond the base area. -Exactly what Professor Ivan said a woodcutter who only knows how to use an ax is a woodcutter but not a woodcutter who is hired nowadays must know how to use a chainsaw or heavy machines to cut trees are more value then a worker how only know chainsaw. -Thanks for the knowledge teachers David and Ivan ... !!!

Great insight and clear thought process based conversation. Thanks for introducing Ivan Pepelnjak to us.

What about cyber security? Will AI replace it also?

hi Mr.david I have bought a dell inspiration 14 3000 i3 10 gen 4 giga ram. it has become slow like keeping on not responding even the task manager is also not responding for some time . I have avast anti virus when I run full virus scan its showing that no malware has found. I have bought it on 20 september 2020. I dont know whats happenning with this laptop do it has any virus or not if there what i have to do can u tell me sir what to do please.

From algeria i say thank you mr david Your one in a million Thank you david I really appreciate what you are doing.

Excellent video, Thanks a lot for this important video.

Just got my CCNA, i can't decide what i should do next, which will be better David? Cloud or CCNP security?

Just commented to show Gratitude. Thanks David and Ivan. Thanks a Lot. Ivan just converted Years and Years of Wisdom in few minutes of Videos. Thanks David and Ivan Again.

David! You have asked the same questions what I wanted to ask.

Sir...m your unauthorised student ..have a ?? Who are the people to able shut down whole internet connection??I know u think what a funny ??? M asking..but it is my mind think it's possible...h's.... kindly give me answer..is possible???

Always rocks David.....thank u for providing future information.....

Thanks David bombal best instructor... I have listen and digested I think we need to be dynamic and accept changes . it all depends on our mindset we should try and learn AI .

Very insightful conversations...

Man, you both are really unique and outstanding, i love your interview and will never get tired of watching it repeatedly.

What books do you recommend for cybersecurity /pentesting on hardware parts? What is the best book for secure Cisco software and products Cisco ? Thanks

Put another way, I think he’s emphasizing the importance of being a generalist. While I’d agree there’s something to be said for being a generalist / full stack engineer, it is another thing being good at each field. What I’m coming to realize in my environment alone is that there is enough to keep me occupied with learning route and switch for some time. That doesn’t stop me at learning python (Queue David Bombals course) but it’s kind of dessert atm. I think my junior network perspective is to give time to master areas, as well as build curiosity for other areas.

When I give command nmap -sT IP address in kali Linux it says its blocking our ping prob try -Pn and the ip is running. What is the solution to it?

Regarding Artificial Intelligence, would yousay that you can create a script or file that can behave or operate the way you want it to behave or operate?

Thanku sir for this conversation.U really knows what questions related to career we have in our mind.

Hmmm I wonder if network security/security in general is a good skill? I have been doing Cisco DUO, Cisco Umbrella, Cisco ISE, Fortinet, Cisco Firepower, Cisco WSA/DLP, with Digital Guardian and Cisco stealthwatch

AI will replace network ADMINS but not network ENGINEERS. Admins perform repeatable linear tasks which AI excels at, engineers solve complex problems and develop solutions. AI so far is not good at that, even several years later.

Mm very interesting take on this. I expanded away from just R/S and added onto Collaboration and wireless. Makes me wonder what direction and changes can occur on this side of unfied communication. Should I continue to invest in this area or move to something. A lot of video/call are now app based via internet. Do you even need a PBX now? Sip trunks? Hmm. Interesting take. Been thinking about going into security but I don't see like content for CCNP security. You must be booked and so little time haha. Is that a course you'll have or what other sources can one look without spending huge amounts of money. Nonetheless, great topic. Always readjusting where the next focus of area should be.

Thank you guys.

🙏🙏👍👍👏👏 Thanks for an eye opening video during the current IT industry scenarios. Thankyou so much David Sir you are always creating and posting new and unique contents which helps young one's like me in IT. 🙏🙏👍👍👏👏👏

Scary reality ahead in terms of technology...will definitely continue racking up on and perfecting IT and interpersonal skills...thanks David and Ivan for sensitization, really great!

Hi David, It's not about 5-10 years...... It is about learning something that a machine can never learn...... To Evan, In 1990's, we didn't have working Quantum computers. So please be cautious about what u say for Machine Learning till its not synchronized with Quantum computations. To Everyone: Just do whatever u r doing, if a machine takes ur job then please stand for the cause "Humans b4 Machines".

Hello sir I from India What you think about Network Automation and Cisco DEVNET give the review about it For new comer in Networking in very useful information ...so could plz review about it . Sir

Mr.David Bombal You are so Awesome and Amazing Like Always ! 👏👏👏👏👏👏🔥🔥👋

Do firewall or WAF engineer need to worry?

Hello David , i have watched all videos currently i m doing ccna what should be my next path after completing ccna ? please suggest, Thank you in advance

David, I really appreciate the content you are making. It is really hard to find the relevant content on youtube which targets on specific topic that are most in demand. Please keep making these videos and if you can create a topic feedback that we can fill out would be great also. I'm currently Working in system administration but doing my bachelors in software development. Starting in IT has given me a really strong background about how apps works in background and how they talk to each other.

I worked for a 200 billion asset company and for every diaper machine or any paper machine, it has taken away 50 jobs per machine ..these machines produce 10 x the speeds saddening

Thank you David for such videos :)

Thank you so much @David, you're providing us Good contents, this Ivan's very Smart

I think so network Engineer future stuck after entering automation and tools lacking of jobs and human sources decrease suddenly.

Very good talk thank you. Posted on Linkedin :)

I differ from what this guy is saying, when AI takes all the low end jobs then you have a forced labor force also trying to get jobs in the more "intelligent" jobs, especially now that university access is much easier with loans and also free information access on the internet. The reason we have much more programmers is not because of more university grads but because of the internet. I work in AI/cloud and also used to work as a network engineer so I have a unique viewpoint of this subject. Asking network engineers with 0 AI experience is not helpful advise as they have 0 idea what is happening in the cutting edge of the industry of AI. These people don't understand that AI is not just machine learning in a traditional manner, but rather with new neural networks we have entire industries at threat of being replaced and all is needed in certain industries is someone/group to build a good enough product that is innovative which others in the same industry will copy and use to improve. There is a reason communications/network industry has changed so much and it is because cloud is taking over and cloud is heavily made up of AI models, you think your cost management recommendations in azure is hard coded? no, no ,no sorry. The reason AI didn't take over in the 1960-90's is because we had lack of computing power and lack of sufficient data, same things your brain needs to function. Now we have both and look at how rapidly the computing industry is changing over night. I 100% believe network engineers are in danger of losing their jobs, not just because of AI but because of the tooling that is also created. It is significantly easier to create/manage large scale networks than ever before and your require even less engineers to manage even large networks than 5-10 years ago, meaning you have less jobs than before and more people battling for the same jobs. Jobs are becoming scarcer not in the sense of amount but in the sense of getting paid a living wage. Go look in africa how little network engineers get paid and then realize they can do the same job as the 6 figure engineers in the US or europe and as seeing remote work is taking over, be careful that someone living on a 20th of what a US resident lives on can now take your job, this can be seen by the massive new office Amazon built in south africa and they have hired a LOT of staff to work there already.

🔰 They already have automated hamburger flippers...😂 Seriously, I’ve seen them...

I don’t know, may be it’s just me. This ivan guy always take away my motivation for studying ccna :( , he’s kinda make me think IT field is only for experienced and super skilled people. There’s no hope for fresher

I had been worried about AI. Yes,It was replaced most of human jobs

How can we apply AI and Machine learning in Networks or Systems? Does a good Network Engineer needs to be a good Data scientist as well?

Awesome as always :D

An amazing interview like always ❤🧡❤

Great one sir

I think AI gonna do what dreamweaver was for the websites, ton of useless line of code.

Is that possible?

This tile im gonna say thank you first then i'll watch the video 😂 so thank you David and Thank you Ivan🌹

I hope there will be a third part :)

Nice Topic...Very much relevant to current situation 👌

I would love to hear david’s own opinion about how the networking jobs will do in future rather put someone else in the hot seat

Very good talk! Thanks

I am also.interested in automating the network through AI.

Doesn't seem to matter how much I know when I am not confident enough to talk about when it is I know. Seems like i've wasted years of my life learning this stuff.

Thanks a lot to David Bombal for hosting Ivan again.

A big thanks to you David! I really appreciate you for bringing in such a hero. I like the kind of questions you asked the man. This really makes you stand out amongst others that are not to be mentioned. I look forward to watching such videos like this... 👆👆👆

what about blockchain as a skill?

Networking content is back 🥳🥳

is this like the fifth video insinuating that the future of network engineering is doomed for us all studying ccna right now? do we just have to keep learning everything for fucking ever? it's so overwhelming...

Thank you David ; can you do a video about being anonymous with Kali on a daily working

good job sir........love you

Is it a good idea to start with devnet?

Hello Mr. David I am currently a 3rd year student of Information Technology we are taking our thesis or capstone project and it should be a web based can you suggest/help us what to do? Thankyou

Very informative video :)

Thank you @david bombal

AI will not replace someone who can understand and implement a set of business requirements. All the AI automation tools in the network space seem to be largely proprietary and vendor-centric, which I am not a huge fan of. It’s the new lock-in.

Geoffrey Hinton might disagree !!!

Im not gonna lie the title hurt my feelings im on my way to getting a network admin cert and ai will replace net admin how

Great topic

David Bombal can not be replaced.

Put video about PoE it's important to know (CCNA)..

Would be nice to have another person weigh in on this question. Even standing up a panel regarding this. Definitely seems like having a programming skillset as your foundation or having a technical background that you could utilize in a management role is the way forward.

Can girls work in network engineering field

thanks again :)

Do something better than people sitting beside you left and right.👌👍

Why do you always seem to agree with your guest rather than to challenge him on some of his ideas. I do know you have to be diplomatic but this really reduces your credibility as a professional. Thanks for all your hard work.

I love Jarvis but it doesn’t have will nor initiative. We think & do the hard work and let Jarvis do the mundane tasks.

No one could be like u sir

How do i start in automatind David?

The way he speak is funny about engineer network
