I know literally that means you need to re-take 4 exams!
CCNP only requires 640-519
Hmm, you have a point there, plus you have to recertify your spec's every 2
years, where you can wait 3 years on CCNA, CCDA, CCNP and CCDP. So if you
take the 1 exam for the CCNA or 5 exams for the CCNP, you can keep the cert
3 years, but if you add 4 exams to become CCNA/CCNP + Security, you can
You forgot the line about "shell out more bucks"
