Subject: OT: You know a 1 day remote lab would not be limited to small
number of Devices.
Just read a message about OSPF limits not being a problem in the lab. It
started me thinking out of the box.
Fact One: We don't want the CCIE test to be devalued.
Fact Two: CCIE is an Enterprise Level Certification.
I think if Cisco wants to use (which they do) the technical advantages of
remote equipment, then they should go all the way. I mean your $1250
testing
fee should get you a test on 40, maybe 50 pieces of wan equipment setup as a
large international WAN. (all mocked up in single room buried deep in the
Cisco campus).
You would have 9 hours to repair, review, debug, upgrade, etc. Throw in
some
poor ip addresses that can't be summarized, access lists that 9 different
people have worked on. Gee, I can think of some real world examples they
could just import the configs! <smile>.
You have 9 hours to get an enterprise level wan, up to speed, including
Multihoming BGP issues with a full bgp routing table. Think of the failure
rate. <grin>
In the future, the new CCIE's may look back at us, and say we had it easy.
