Hi Neil,

I realise you have no crystal ball but will all these CCIE tracks get 'smushed' together at some point or will we see even more designations in future do you think?

For me it was just to get a complete set... when I started it was just R&S,Security and C/S(Now Service Provider)
then another came along..

I got my first two in 20 days and the third after 12 months, so it was a
total of 3 in 13 months but to get 4??????, who knows, it all depends on
what you are doing and how comfortable you are with the stuff. When i took
security CCIE, the only security appliance in the lab was a PIX. But
nowadays the track has 2 ASAs, one PIX, one VPN and a 42xx box plus 9
routers and 2 switches, with may be 1 percent of routing & Switching stuff
(If that). When i took my security, routing and switching was a big part of
the lab, what i am trying to say is that there was lots of overlapping stuff
between the three tracks.

Good luck mate, if you can do it, go for it. I will definitely congratulate
you. Based on what you wrote, it shows lots of confidence.



You are either under 20 or over 70 years of age. If you are under 20, then I
can see where you are coming from. If you are over 70 and still saying
things like that publicly, then you just bought some of those blue pills and
you think it works for everything (just kidding)

In my case, it was an evolution.  If you had asked my back when studying
for
my R&S if I would plan on getting more than one, my response would have
been
"Are you f#*$&ing insane?"   :)

But as I progressed working in different technology areas, and doing the
recert exams (also qualifying exams) it was kind of natural to play around
with it.

Roman has 5 titles to his name but you're right dude...it's insane to even
plan it and lay it out. I wonder if Scott, Brian, Narbik et al really
planned to get multiple titles or it just kinda evolved that way?

Dang man,

pass the crack pipe my way. I think you are definitely telling a joke to
get
responses. I do not think that is even possible. Maybe if you are an
industry expert in all of those areas already, which is also a bit
improbable. You certainly could not have a day job and do all that.
Anyone can brain dump the written exams.

All I can say is good luck but trying not to discourage your
enthusiasm you may fall to earth with a large BUMP!!!!

Concentrate on one lab at a time. See how you get on with the R&S and
take it from there.
