Cisco does NOT require a ccnp in order to get ccie. However, all the
knowledge and skills that are learned in getting a ccnp are necessary to get
CCIE (R&S). So, getting a ccnp is a stepping stone on the way to a ccie.
Also, taking the tests required for a ccnp can help highlight any areas
which may need further strengthening.
Also, keep in mind that there's a tremendous difference in the level of
difficulty between the ccnp and the ccie. Some people can learn all the
material needed for a ccnp in just a few months. While for most people -
people who already have a ccnp - getting a ccie takes a few years.
So, bottom line: you're not wasting effort or losing any time in getting a
ccnp. You're just making sure you've got the fundamentals down solid as you
prepare for the ccie.
HTH, tim
