  2. Speed Grade need to show txt files!

    The speed grader should show text files. Now you have to download and open them to see the content. Very inconvenient when looking at configs submitted by students.

  3. fix errors in assessments

    Hi. I'm Marina. Sorry, but I think that some answers in [CPP] Chapter 1 Assessment are wrong:

    20 question - the right answers are: deque & list, because the basic container must support front(), back(), pushback(), and popfront ()(vector doesn't support pop_front) => it can't be used in queue

    23 question - the right answers are: deque, vector & list, because the basic container must support back(), pushback(), and popback ()(all those containers do)

  5. Create Public url to login page from the public Instructor Profile

    In the public profile of the Instructors, there is a link to "My Netacad" and it is NOT working WITHOUT login. it leads to https://www.netacad.com/group/landing and appear blank page.

    I suggest to correct that one and include the login button in the top right side of the public profile page also for easy access.

  6. Error while downloading Packet Tracer

    When I try to download 64bit version of PT for Windows (My NetAcad -> Resources -> Packet Tracer), browser reports error "Too many redirections".

    Probably, link is corrupted.

    My students refer the same error, too.

  8. Get PT more user fiendly

    Me and my students very often use PT7, and propose the following:

    1. Eliminate the User Profile window on startup (see attach); it shows
      wrong information (Guest, while I'm logged in with my Netacad profile)
      and its only purpose seems... to be closed

    2. Speed up the opening of the .pkt or .pka files: the initial logo mask is
      there for at least 20-30" even in very recent and powerful PCs, with SSD...

    3. When opening .pka files, please put the instructions window in foreground.
      It's not user friendly to always hide it under the main Working area window.

    Referred to Helpdesk  ·  AdminSandra Ray (Customer Support Director, or Executive, Cisco Networking Academy) responded

    Thank you for your suggestions. We talked to the Packet Tracer team and they have provided the following:

    1. User Profile window only shows up when you load an activity that requires it. The purpose is for the student to enter a name and email (Not their netacad login) that will let the instructor identify who worked on the activity. If the student changes this profile, it will reset the activity, thereby preventing cheating. Otherwise students will be able to share completed activities with one another. Although we ask the user to login to their netacad account, we do not use this information as a means to populate the file because some classrooms may use one installation with a single login.

    2. The slow load times of PKT and PKAs require the user to send us their file. In general, 7.1 will load faster than 7.0. However, in our own…

  9. Research support for the undergraduate level

    Hi, I teach at the community college level (Ivy Tech) and have some router focused security enhancement ideas of my own & some very capable students who could help investigate those further. What are the steps for getting our campus/ school involved in such a capacity with Cisco?
    Thanks,
    alf

  11. Keep Cybersecuirty Link current

    ITN, Chap 11. This lab is not consistent with the changing SANS site. Instead of specifying specific link which changes I recommend asking the student a more general question that can be found in a sight that is constantly being updated. See 11.2.2.6 Lab - Researching Network Security Threats.pdf

  12. A problem with packet tracer

    Hi all,
    I am having trouble with Packet tracer, the simulation that encompass a solar PV, a meter, a battery and 5 bulbs. I have set up the network as required, but when I click to use the IoT cable, it had two small circles at the beginning and end, and none of the bulbs light (become green). I an not sure of the two problems are related. Please assist.

  15. first login fails

    Again and again, the first login into Netacad often fails, despite:
    - the screen-name is correct (the second time it works)
    - the password is entered correctly both the first and the second time
    - the password buffer is "cleared" by typing some starting "Canc" keys.

    I saw similar tickets were already closed, but I suppose the problem
    was not found, and is actually still there, indeed!
    Marco.

  16. Poor Spanish translation

    Current Spanish curricula is poorly translated. There are some technical words that even if are originally in English, are used in the same way in Spanish. One specific example of this issue is related with the word broadcast, but Spanish version 6.0 includes this word translated as "difusión" and it doesn't reflect the right meaning in networking.
    Also there are some words that should be translated, for example "routing" should be translated as "enrutamiento" but hasn't be translated and it produces wrong translations like "routing estático" but it should be translated as "enrutamiento estático".

  19. Bulk Deacttivation

    I think it would be nice if the bulk deactivation would make it possible to deactivate all assessments for all students. I have tried this several times ever since Canvas was introduced as platform, at it has never worked for any of my groups. Tried it again a few minutes ago, with the same result.
