ity ,

i was in the same boat 4 month`s ago ...

to re-certify i had to do the composite exam ...(which i think didn`t help
my first lab attempt Failed)

i asked a question to my SE and he was told that the CCIE written would NOT
update the NP/DP...

i would just double check to make sure ...but alteast you don`t have to
recert your DP ....that is done automatically with the NP

As you all know, I am currently working on the lab, however, my CCNP/DP is
to expire in about a month.

CCNP expires Oct 24th, CCDP expires in January...

As I understand it, Cisco has made it so that if you pass the written, that
will now re-cert you on CCNP/DP.

I am looking for opinions on this matter, as to take the written again
(which I believe would keep me more focused on the lab) as oppsed to just
taking the CCNP/DP re-cert. I know the written costs more, but I don't want
to factor that into the discussion.

I am in a toss up as to wether to re-cert or not, and the main thing that
keeps bugging me is that I worked hard to get the CCNP/DP, and do I really
want to just let it go.

Thanks!!

Ty
