I am not saying braindumps are good at all, but... What engineer when architecting/building/supporting a solution doesn't have access to the internet or reference tools?
I architect all day long and the Juniper and Cisco websites are my bible for product knowledge, features, part numbers, etc etc. It is like an electrician or plumber without their tools... absolutely useless. I would like to see exams include man pages, or at least an approved reference book that would let you look up obscure crap you almost never need to know off the top of your head. Binary<->Hex<->Decimal math... bullshit, I can't believe we're not able to use even a calculator these days... even highschool exams allow calculators! *Skeeve Stevens, CEO* eintellego Pty Ltd ske...@eintellego.net ; www.eintellego.net <http://www.eintellego.net.au> Phone: 1300 753 383 ; Fax: (+612) 8572 9954 Cell +61 (0)414 753 383 ; skype://skeeve facebook.com/eintellego twitter.com/networkceoau ; www.linkedin.com/in/skeeve PO Box 7726, Baulkham Hills, NSW 1755 Australia The Experts Who The Experts Call Juniper - Cisco – Brocade - IBM On Fri, Mar 30, 2012 at 23:25, Sascha Luck <li...@c4inet.net> wrote: > On Fri, Mar 30, 2012 at 05:03:54AM -0700, Jared Gull wrote: > >> I'm with Graham.
