CCIE Lab… round two!
Well my seat and travel etc is all booked for my second attempt at the R&S lab. I’ll be sitting the exam at the start of January (7th Jan) as this was the soonest seat they had (I checked on the Monday after my first attempt). I had wanted to try and get in there a little sooner as I felt I was ready but it seems that the whole of December was blocked solid! This time around I will do much of the same yet more, I will be…
CCIE R&S Lab… point of no return!
Well today I got the confirmation through from Cisco that my lab attempt has been paid for and therefore there is no turning back now! Once you are within 90-days of your lab exam there are no changes or cancellations allowed which can seem a little extreme but I think it is more because of the fact that there are very limited amount of seats available. For those interested I will be taking the lab exam in Brussels on the 8th November, I had considered keeping the attempt quiet but…
One week down… CCIE Bootcamp
One week down… CCIE Bootcamp Well I am sitting here recovering from what has been a intense first week of the 10-day CCIE R&S Bootcamp from the guys over at INE. The course itself is nothing short of brilliant and I don’t think you can get a better course for your money on the market at the moment. The first week was spent going over the core topics; switching, IGP’s, BGP, MPLS and MPLS VPN with the second week left for the smaller but for most people harder subjects such…
Its bootcamp time….
Well tomorrow I’ll be jumping on a train down to London to take part in the INE 10-day CCIE bootcamp with Brian Dennis. As part of my lab preparations I don’t think I could do any better than getting Brian himself to run me and a few others through our paces. I’m sure it’ll be an intense 2 weeks however I will try and get a couple of posts written up at the same time. I’m also trying to put together a ‘CCIE Wiki’ over at http://wiki.networkbroadcast.co.uk for anything that…
CCIE Study update (May 15)
Over the past couple of days I have reviewed the remainder of the INE Advanced Technology videos that I felt that I needed to brush up on. I felt that before going onto the next stage that I needed to brush up on mostly some of the legacy QoS (FRTS included) and also the Catalyst QoS, I already felt pretty happy with it but as I don’t use it a whole lot day to day I felt it best to get it out of the way. Starting tomorrow I am…
INE Vol1 – Bridging and switching – done
Before christmas I started my way through the INE Vol1 advanced tech labs and got through the first couple of books, I think I was at RIP. Unfortunately because of a temporary resource issue with the CCIE rack I have use of combined with christmas, work being hectic due to a new DC rollout and my January holiday over to the USA the studies got put to one side. Since then I’ve moved out from my parents house (yes, get all the living with your parents jokes out of the…
