I'm currently pursuing the CCDP track and after that the Design CCIE, which
I feel is most relevant in my field of network
consulting. I have found the Top Down Network Design book to be relevant
and extremely useful; I would like to seek
advice on other books apart from those recommended for the Design CCIE track
that I should use to prepare for the
Design CCIE written exam.
I would also like feedback on the Design CCIE track itself and its
positioning in the CCIE market. Is it for network design
architects/professionals per se or is it more of a Multiservice
certification (in the areas of voice/data integration (AVVID)) etc.
regards,
Ming.
