RE: CCIE in 3-6 Months from cisco Interesting [7:43306]
I agree, there is a perception of CCIE's as "arrogant know-it-alls." Some of this is surely warranted, and some surely stems from envy. Which is why I can laugh at this joke you may have already heard: Q:"What's the difference between a CCIE and God?" A:"God doesn't think he is a CCIE..."

On the other hand, there is a major difference between somebody who admits he doesn't know the answer, but can probably look it up, and somebody who boldly states something that is flatly wrong. For example, with that guy I interviewed who claimed that CEF can only be run on a GSR, clearly this was a case where he was trying to snow me. Now I admit, I was trying to trick him (I deliberately pretended that I knew nothing about networks because I wanted to see what kinds of things he would say if he didn't think I was a networking guy myself), and boy, was he tricked. > > > It's certainly not a big joke, it's just that yes you really can pass the > > lab without experience.

RE: OT - List of dirty words [7:26380]
You knew it had to happen...OK if the response was an attempt to be
sarcastic, please ignore the following:
First, if you didn't want to deal with the off topic post, the subject of
Dennis' post was:
OT - List of dirty words ("OT" stands for Off Topic)
Second, Dennis seems to be trying to come up with a list of objectionable
words with which to filter his own email client, not a corporate email
platform. He does not wish to recreate the wheel and type every known
obscenity into his profanity filter by hand.
Third, Did *you* check google.com? I did. What I didn't find was
anyone posting a list of a hundred or more obscene words in a file for
anyone to download. (Maybe fifty or so though... ;-) One reason for
that might be that if *I* can download them that easily, maybe 8 year
old Johnny can too! ;-)
(The rest of this is for Dennis..)
Hey Dennis, George Carlin provided the FCC with a list once...they
really do have a "official" list. I will post five words, sanitized
of course...

http://www.google.com has lots of links. Did you try there? Also,
keep in mind that "diryt words" are not simply what we would consider
to be foul language. Dirty words define words that your company
would not want passing through your content scanner, and are even
in this context, not set in stone. Example, I may not want mail with
the word "resume" in the subject leaving my network, but have no
objections to such mail coming in. I might object to web content with
the words "sex" involved incoming and outgoing, and so on.
To limit your request to vulgarity limits the scope of your effectiveness
greatly.

RE: Passed CCIE written
I guess the easy answer to your question is "yes" - if someone wants to pay more for a CCIE lab candidate than for a CCNP who is not a candidate for the lab, then it is worth more to them. Now, my personal opinion would be that you could not use the attainment of either CCIE written or CCNP as a valid sole measure of marketability. I can find folks who have passed the written that know more about networking and Cisco than some CCNP's, and can find folks who have achieved CCNP that know more than some who have passed the written and are candidates for the two days of hell. The bottom line is this - does the person know their stuff, are they willing to continually learn new stuff, and how well can they perform when under fire. Good luck!

RE: CCIE Written R/S?
I agree wholeheartedly. I took all 4 tests for the CCNP 2.0 track in July and passed all of them on the first attempt without much problem. I have 10 years internetworking experience with plenty of hands on. The CCIE written R/S is another animal altogether. I took it the first time at Networkers Orlando and scored 63%. Took it again this morning and scored 62%. Some categories got better, while others got worse. After the first attempt I was disappointed, this time I am more angry than disappointed. A different attitude and level of preparation is required for this test - at least that is my experience. Off now to read my @$$ off before rescheduling 350-001.

Tempted as I am to make a sarcastic remark, I find that your question has merit, and is deserving of a considered reply. Don't know how hard it is. Have only taken a couple of practice tests at certification zone. (www.certificationzone.com ) But the way I look at it, there is a reason that top sports stars make the money they make. There is a reason that CCIE's are in such demand. So I am taking the approach that even though I have passed a number of certification tests, I am still not a big leaguer. I still have a bunch to learn. About the time I joined groupstudy ( just about a year ago now ) there was a guy who went from essentially no networking experience to CCIE in less than a year. He worked at it full time, day and night. Nice work if you can get it. He no doubt is a highly intelligent and talented guy. He no doubt worked his butt off. But the point is that full time study can lead to great things if you are motivated, and if you have talent. I would guess that most folks who pass the CCIE written and a couple of years of hands on and have spent their fair share of time reading. Some say that having attained the CCNP, one should essentially be ready for the written. Others say that you still need to add a couple of key areas, such as BGP and token ring and ATM. Best thing, as always, is to print out the blueprint from CCO and let that be your guide. http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/625/ccie/rsblueprint.html For myself, I am looking at the end of October as my test date. That would mean 6 months of preparation after my CCNP. But then I work full time, have a family, and in general find it difficult to put in more than 10 hours a week in study. Your results may vary. Best wishes to you. See you on the road there.
