Took the plunge
Well I bought two 3550 (with EMI) and a 2511 with 2 octal cables last night....
So I have
3x2500
2x2600
1x3640
(and dynamips)
1x2950
1x2924
2x3550 (on the way)
And I have the offical BSCMN book and study/lab guide. Starting with BSCMN.
So CCNP here I come. I really wanted to go the CCSP route, but CCNP will probably pay off sooner. I already have the IDS test completed for CCSP, so I will probably pick that track back up a year or two from now.
Anyway wish me luck!!!
The ADVENTURE begins!!!!

Good point, but I am not to worried about it. I am doing the CC*P track while simultaneously working on some linux stuff. If I get heavy back into IT security I will finish up the CCSP stuff. I was a good deal of the way done with the PIX/ASA tests. Actually I will probably knock them out after the CCNP... Who knows it all depends on which way my career goes... I will be a network engineer for the next 6 months. So hopefully I can nock out the BSCMN and maybe get most of the way done with the BSCI in the next 8 months...encrypt the encryption, never mind my brain hurts. -

It's probably worth keeping your PIX/ASA knowledge "fresh," even while working on the CCNP. That PIX/ASA knowledge (along with the CCNP and your experience) could wind up sucking you into the Security side of things down the road.liven wrote:If I get heavy back into IT security I will finish up the CCSP stuff.

Good point, the ASA stuff keeps coming up on job interviews. Good thing I have some real world experience with these devices!!! Of course I could always use more, but at least I have some!encrypt the encryption, never mind my brain hurts.
