Hello all,
I don't believe I get to write this EMail, but finally I have 13685
reasons to do so!
First my thanks, and then I will describe how I learned.
First I would like to thanks my wife, Iris. In the past six month see
must had been thinking that I have an affair... But my lover wasn't a
woman, it was Jeff from www.bradshawlabs.com. Jeff, thanks you for your
wonderful rental racks, your great service and the your wonderful
workbooks. The ATM workbook worth it's weight in gold!
Next I would like to thanks you, the members of groupstudy. It is one of
the most interesting mailing groups I know of, and the community is so
nice and helpful. And special thanks to Brian (X2), Scott Morris,
Kenneth and Howard for their detailed answers.
Next to last thanks, I would Like to thank IBM for paying the bills.
Last but not least, I would like to thank Internetwork Experts lab which
made the difference!
Now the history. It all started in Dec 2003 when the first CCIE Bootcamp
was held in Israel, and it happened to be my company, IBM, who arranged
it. But IBM policy is that IBM's employees get only avail seats, so I
managed to be only on half of the bootcamp.
Then I started to learn for the written exam. It was my first Cisco exam
(I don't have any CC.*), and it wasn't easy to pass.
On the way I read CCIE IP routing vol I and II. CCIE practical guide vol
I and II. Cisco technology support documents and groupstudy...
Then I started with IPExpert work book, thing was calm until lab 36. At
that point I think lots of people get cold feet about the CCIE thing...
I failed my first attempt on June 2004. Until now I don't know why, I
don't think that my last time was any easier.
After I failed, I realized that my problem was wording. So I decided to
tryout Internetwork Expert. Their solution guide was just what I needed.
For me it was a "wording guide". I done almost all the labs and I felt
very prepared.
What next? I don't know. Until a year ago I was system programmer
(Mainframes/Unix/M$/Security) and I miss it allot, especially the big
iron. So I hope that I will be able to do more system stuff.
Sorry for any spelling or grammar mistake which my speller failed to
find, or maybe it is my responsibility ?!
My real Email is dans @atatatat@ il ...doooot... ibm ......doty--..--
com
il is part of the email (il=israel)
Once again, thanks you all!
Dan Shechter.
