Hi all,
I passed yesterday in RTP. This was my second go at it, after
a disasterous effort in San Jose a year ago. Without the support
of my wife, coworkers and manager, this time would have been
equally unsuccessful. Having a great lab at work, and three other
CCIEs to work with also helped enormously, as did this list. I
don't think I did anything anyone who's passed hasn't mentioned
before, but one bit of advice (from Denise Donohue) about being
able to configure routers at 7:30am stood out. I was in networkers
last week, and made it a habit to ssh into the lab each morning.
As for the actual lab, I thought things were going well, until
I started looking around and finding a bunch of stuff that
wasn't working right. By the time I left, I was having trouble
getting the points to add up to 80, and was looking forward to
a sleepless night. Luckily, I got my result at 9pm last night
(thank god for insomniac graders). There's nothing like seeing
that "Congratulations" in the subject line.
