Good course. Concepts explained well. I had taken the course to learn about packets and how they relate to security. The course covered a good overview on the former. You speak very well and explain the concepts very well, BVK!

Good overview of basic packet switching concepts. This is definitely a fundamentals course, as per the title, however it's presented very well, and references more advanced topics if the delegate wishes to take it any further. I'd recommend this course. The narrator has a good style too. Many thanks.
