I think this is because this is really not a big change... At least not in
the beginning

They're testing your ability to adapt to change.

Subject: lab changes

My question about the changes below is that tons of proctors in the past
have stated that there would be a 6-month notice before new devices are
added into a lab. The view is also shared amongst many here. However, if
this was announced Aug 16, its only 4 = months to Jan 1.

Cisco CCIE Updates Lab Exam Equipment and IOS

16 AUG 2005: Effective January 1, 2006 all CCIE Routing and Switching lab
locations will begin introducing the Cisco 3825 Integrated Services Router
into the exam racks. These routers support Ethernet, Fast Ethernet and
Gigabit Ethernet interfaces and will eventually replace the Series 2600 and
Series 3600 models. Along with the router change, the CCIE R&S lab will be
upgrading the IOS to 12.3 mainline (for the Cisco 2600 and 3600 Series
Routers), 12.4 mainline (for Cisco 3700 and 3800 Series Routers) and 12.2
for Cisco Catalyst 3550 switches.

All CCIE R&S candidates taking exams January 1, 2006 or later should be
familiar with the updated IOS and equipment, although the installations to
replace the routers will take place over several weeks and it is possible
some candidates may not see the new equipment in their exams.
