You are not alone. I'm in the same spot as you are. I have virtually zero
hands on with Cisco equipt. My current position is slowly squeezing my
enthusiasm. In a couple of months, I'm am gone from here and hopefully I'll
find something that will allow me to work with Cisco equipment (nice to have
other types thrown in as well) even though I may have to start at the lower
end. I've already started on the CCNP track and I find it damn difficult to
get through the study material without hands on. I'm hoping to get a couple
of routers on my own because I think classes are just too expensive. Good
luck on your journey.

Although this group is great for collabarating...I feel the need for
some human interaction. My current job environment entails me as the
only network proffessional on staff. Is any member of the list a current
member of the NPA? If so, what do they think? Is this worth the $175.00
per year? Are there any other options in the Twin Cites (Minnesota)
area??
Also I have a philosophical question. Would it be better to find a
position that peripherally allows some Cisco WAN experience before
embarking on CCNP/CCIE? I have my CCNA. Or should one just go for it
anyway?
