I passed this on Friday 
As for study materials.. I used GNS3 as much as I could. worked well for the IPv6 lab. I bought the boson test to practice on. I do a lot of R/S trouble shooting at work, So this probably helped.
Advice. Take this exam 1 or 2 weeks after you passed the switch/route. It's pretty straight forward.
Not sure what to do next, may start heading CCIE direction. As i think it covers some of the gaps.. qos, security etc.
But it will be nice to have another pro cert, and DP seems the closest with only DA and Arch to sort out. So it may be a logical choice

I personally picked CCIP after, mainly as its filling the gaps in my knowledge with QoS, BGP and MPLS before I head to the CCIE. Given the CCIE R&S has a lot on MPLS as well as QoS and BGP, its a good route to go in my opinion.Work In Progress: CCIE R&S Written

I'm still unsure what to do next, But i have the QoS, arch and routing TCPip books on my desk at work, So I think I will start on one of them.
