Brian..
I totaly agree with you. I pursued the ccie security cert for a couple of
year. I had a networking security job where I worked lots with firewalls,
vpn and other security related stuff. It is not that often that I meet on
cisco security related stuff in the fild. Then I changed job to another ISP,
and they told me also that I did not need to pursu that cert since they also
seldom had any cisco related security stuff other than the security part
that is in the r&s blueprint... They told me to rather pursu that cert,
because the security blueprint studd was not needed... I understand that
there is many firm that do use cisco much on the security platform, but at
least here in norway that is not common..
Just my opinion..
Jens
