passed JNCIA-Junos!
just back from Prometric having passed JNCIA-Junos 
did most of my study from the FastTrack books, but dipped into the M-track books & Juni docs for clarification on a few things (plus asking the odd stupid question on here)
I think I'm going to do JNCIS-ENT next to make use of the free study resources & to solidify my skills, then on to the SP track after that

Hey congrats mate! So what did you do for hands-on practice? Olive? Real hardware? Please share, thanks!

I used a couple of IP330's running Olive (see the 1u olive sticky) - I think that's ample for JNCIA. I was running oldish code - 7.4 - so a few minor things didn't work quite as per the FastTrack docs, nor some of the hardware-specific stuff like traffic monitoring, but no big deal
when I move on to JNCI[SPE] I have a couple of PC Olives that I will probably throw into the mesh, although I have played with virtual-routers & they work very well too. I also have a pile of c26xx's that I will likely use as external-AS routers as I can configure them in my sleep & concentrate on JunOS. lastly, I have a couple of linux servers that I can hook in as edge hosts/traffic-gennerators as requiredJNCIS-ENT - :study: -

Congrats on the pass mate!
For the ENT do you have any EX switches at work or something that you can lab on? Not sure how focused the JNCIS-ENT on switching but I'm guessing you will need some exposure to the EX switches. -

There's plenty of EX material covered in the ENT track."Bribe is such an ugly word. I prefer extortion. The X makes it sound cool."

Yep just checked the ENT fast track materials, you'll definitely want to get your hands on some EX switches

I'm only planning on doing JNCIS-ENT, then switching to the the SP track. I'm not paying even ebay prices for an EX, so I'll take my chances just book-learning the switching stuff. I don't think it'll be too hard now I've got to grips with the CLI
the other option might be to speak to my friendly Juni reseller & get an EX in for "testing"
