It is necessary as the matrix clearly states "At least one CCNA must be a
Microsoft Certified System Engineer on Win 2000". This is for a Partner
specialization in IP Telephony - not the individual spec (CCNP - Voice)
Thanks to you and other posters. I wasn't aware that CCM was running on
NT - explains it I guess.
I open my handy dandy Product Quick Ref and sure enough - pre-installed on
Windows NT servers. I'm not sure that a MCSE is required for this task,
probably just Win 2000 server would suffice but what the hey! I guess I'm
not through with my M$ certs after all.........
This subject came up while I was enquiring to details on becoming a Premier
Partner (currently just a plain ol' reseller). Cisco phones me up with some
details and asks me if I had given IP Tel any thought - they would be
"thrilled" if I would consider qualifying as an IP Tel Partner, it seems
that there are only 2 in Canada and those names aren't recognizable.
Thanks again to the group for the quick info.
