About

My name is Jeremy Gaddis and I’m a Mac. I am currently employed as a network administrator for a post-secondary educational institution in Bloomington, Indiana, where my duties include designing and managing the high-speed campus networks, administering Win2K/Win2K3, Debian, Gentoo, and RHEL servers, database administration, security, and occasionally hacking on some Perl or PHP. I also serve as an adjunct faculty member, teaching network security courses.

I am currently certified as a Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA), a Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP), a Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS), and am busily pursuing my next Cisco certifications: Cisco Certified Academy Instructor (CCAI) and Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP). In addition to being Cisco and Microsoft certified, I am also certified by SANS/GIAC (Certified Windows Security Administrator, CompTIA (Linux+/Network+), and HP (Accredited Integration Specialist).

I have been a technological swiss army knife since the Oregon Trail was text only. My favorite color is sushi. I have never been to the moon.

I can be reached via e-mail to jeremy at evilrouters dot net or you can catch me on AIM (jeremygaddis).

    Hey I wanted to say that your website is Awesome! I just started up my own and I wanted to ask you how are you separating and shading the text outputs from routers a different color?? I really like that and then also what are you using to make your pictures?? Very nice. Hope to hear back from you soon. Thanks!

    Hi Jan,

    It’s all done in the CSS. The WordPress theme that I’m using is (or, started out as, to be more exact) called “fluid blue” (I have modified quite a bit of it). All the styling is handled by the CSS. Feel free to take a look at the stylesheets and reuse them or get ideas from them. The “router” part is all enclosed in <pre> tags, so it should be easy to fun.

    The diagrams are all made with Microsoft Visio, for lack of anything better.

    I look forward to watching your site evolve, by the way, and good luck in your pursuit of the Cisco CCNP certification! There are a number of us sharing that same goal!

    Love this site! Do you have any suggestions for Inter Vlan Lab topologies consisting of 3 routers (3640s), 3550 and 2950 switches and 3 end devices? I’d like to be able to test out dot1q trunking functions as well. Thanks!

    Thanks for the great site. Could you possibly provide guidance in developing a lab topology? Consisting of 3 3640 routers, 3550 and 2950 switches respectively along with 3 PCs? No serial interfaces on the routers so I can’t practice WAN connectivity. How about Inter-Vlan routing and Trunking? TIA
