I want to learn these things myself. I began a page on my own website with a couple of links…

[http://notails.com/learning/](http://notails.com/learning/)

It’s mainly for my own purposes, somewhere to collect learning resources and be able to refer to them from anywhere.

I’m looking for videos that explain in simple terms things like…

IP addressing,  
Switches,  
Routers,  
Routing,  
Subnets,  
Firewalls,  
Building office networks from scratch,  
VPNs,  
etc…
