Can’t. Stop. Shaking. I just got my results in and after nearly four long years, I’m a CCIE. More to come later. I do want to write up my general feelings on the exam, and what v5 candidates should expect.

Where I’m at now…
So a quick update, I have passed the 400-101 (v5 written) and I’m back into full swing. Thanks to the awesome re-take policy iPexpert offers, my bootcamp is booked also. So if anyone out there plans to attend OWL in March, I’ll be in RTP for that class. All in…

EIGRP just went… Over the TOP!
So I did a short video with my initial configuration/look at EIGRP OTP. Just thought I’d share it out here as well. I’m going to be looking into it a little more in-depth in the next post, but until then!

GNS3 IOU Server (GNS3 1.0 Beta 2)
Just thought I’d share this video out from my YouTube channel here also. So the two people who mistakenly read my blog this week can see how this is done. GNS3 IOU Server L2 Image I use — i86bi-linux-l2-ipbasek9-15.1e.bin L3 Image I use — i86bi-linux-l3-adventerprisek9-15.3.1.3T.bin ================================================ Modify this conf file…

Looks like I’m a new INE.com instructor!
Yes sir, you read that subject line correctly! Granted, I’m only developing content for CCNA but yes I’ll be a INE.com video instructor soon enough. Which aside from the fact I get to put that on my resume, it’s something I love doing. Since I got into networking I’ve loved…

My brief experience with Quad Sup VSS (VS-SUP720-10G)
This is a REALLY short post, about an amazing topic that with the assistance of Google, could easily eat up a couple days worth of reading. I just wanted to talk a little bit about the behavior of your 6500, running VS-SUP720-10G with Quad Sup VSS. The quick and dirty…

Running Labs Again!
I’m back at it! I’d be lying if I didn’t say I was considering quitting. CCIE is tough man, and failing it is soul crushing (especially failing it four times). However, the record’s 19 attempts… so I figure if anything I can at least try to top that! I have…

Still kicking!
I’m working on some spanning tree labs, which will require some real gear. I’ll try to keep them to features only requiring a 3550, but I do have some PVLAN labs I want to work out. I’ve been taking some time off from studies to focus on “real” life. However……

No Dice
Well, it kills me to report that I’ve failed my third attempt. I knew at 9:30am my day was shot, I had not been able to complete either of the three pointers on the troubleshooting section of the lab. It’s hard to explain how that felt… it was the first…

Off to Raleigh, for my third (and hopefully final attempt)
No trouble ticket today, just nervous as hell and wanting to vent to the glorious internet. My lab @RTP is scheduled for the 8th, the Monday following this long weekend. I feel pretty good, but there’s always the unknown… which is killing me. The amount of time and stress that…
