Amp's CCIE Quest On a quest for the digits…

Latest Update

Ok so it's been a little over a month since my last update. I've been grinding as usual. Finally things at work have slowed down as far as doing Juniper stuff but the downside is I have been working an astronomical amount of trouble tickets at work. I had a conversation with the boss today and expressed my desire to only be engaged on an as-needed basis so I can concentrate over the next few months on being as prepared as I possibly can for my lab.

I moved my boot camp date from March to June and my lab date from April 16 to June 25. I will take it the last day of my IPX boot camp.

I purchased the IPX Volume 1 Video-Walkthroughs by Vik Mahli (Thanks Mike D.) and let me tell you, it is quite impressive. I have also been taking very copious notes during my study sessions from the VOD, the Video-Walkthroughs, and my actual lab prep. Someone on  OSL said that they turned their notes into a book and that it helped them during their studies; I decided to try it and I have to admit that it in deed does help. That's the primary reason I haven't been blogging like I want to. At some point I will take what's in the book/notes and post them here on the blog.

Speaking of blog check out Matthew Berry's blog. He is also on the quest to becoming a voice CCIE.

I'm not sure if I sent a shout out to a buddy of mine that recently passed his R&S CCIE (1st attempt...friggin bastard) so I will do it now, Congrats to my pal Brian Luers. We both started at our current company about a month apart and have been pretty good friends since.
