Re: Cisco moving to a one day lab? [7:6735]
Hi, Great. Nowadays you have IPSec, MPLS, Voice, Optical and you still need CLNS/CLNP for IS-IS. You can also argue whether Appletalk or IPX should be removed or not. These are important protocols that should be placed in an add-on certification for Desktop or Client/server issues. Me thinks people are right claiming that in IOS 9.xx or 10.xx times the exam was easier. It's the sheer amount of topics and their synergies that are killing us now. I'd happily trade X.25 or DecNet versus MPLS or IPsec ;-). Just kidding, these topics are far too interesting. Besides, hopefully we all learned from the failure of the Design CCIE. It is not possible to measure one's ability in design and architecture objectively. Hence, me thinks the CCND is pointless and waste of time too. One can also argue whether a CCIE lab based on time-pressure and protocol memorization is the best way of measuring a candidate's ability in network engineering.

Re: New CCIE Tracks
Well, the sad story is: ISP-DIAL-CCIE retired SNA-CCIE retired WAN-Switching CCIE retired Design-CCIE "decommissioned due to redesign" New SP-CCIE just myth and vaporware so far Security-CCIE no glimpse so far Leaves: R&S-CCIE up and running ;-) or maybe the nice new Juniper certifications!

Re: Clarify the differences between Ethernet & IEEE 802.3
Actually it was called "Aloha Protocol", with a successor called "Slotted Aloha" developed at the University of Hawai'i. Alloah is the Islamic version of this protocol ;-).
