CCNP - Done
Passed the ONT today to finish my certification, and boy does the victory smell sweet.
It's been a long old road to get here.
Failed a few times along the way. I knew the ONT was finishing the end of July so i decided to get it done and pass first time. I got 1000/1000
, the testing guy said that not many of those come around.
Anyway this goes to prove that not just the smart people get a perfect score, I'm living proof.
What's next...well im going to take a few months off. I'm probably going to be moving on to the CCIE, that or move to security track not sure really but open to advice.

Congrats!! I finished mine about 2 weeks ago and still waiting for the kit. Hopefully it will come with a card like the CCNA. A lot of people here who just recently passed the CCNP are going for the CCIE so if you decide to do it you will have a lot of company.
I decided not to pursue the CCIE yet because I'm still waiting to get some network engineering experience first and the Security track is enticing me so much. -

Congrats man
After I finish off the CCNP (hopefully in the next month or two) I'm probably going to head for a Juniper cert (JCNIA/S-M I think), and then the CCIP. Those who have taken the CCIP say it is a great introduction/help for the CCIE, plus I'm not paid enough yet to have the spare money for the training materials required for the CCIE so I gotta wait a bit....Work In Progress: CCIE R&S Written

It all depends on what you want. I would say go for CCIE. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. But it depends on if your willing to invest the time and money. If you work in Networking already, I definitely say go CCIE if it is in your "plan." -

congrats, doesn't it feel great?"Check both the destination and return path when a route fails." "Switches create a network. Routers connect networks."
