Hi everybody,

I just want to say that after some intensives months hard work, dedication and
sleepless nights I've managed to pass the CCIE SP lab in Brussels yesterday on
my first attempt.

I would like to thank some persons that definitely have supported in some ways
in this path, first Rocco Tessicini for being this great person and friend who
helped me to keep motivated and to believe in my potential, second my
girlfriend Nati for always being there for me, also the Brians for the great
CoD material of SP and their workbook and tech-lab they definitely helped me
in some points that I was weak, once again they helped me in pursuing another
CCIE.
Also Scott Morris for his answers and participation in this group study, Kenny
Tse, Deepali Ja and Ahmed Alhady for being studying hard with me and all those
persons that I haven't mentioned but have contributed for this success.

I'm putting here a list of books I've read along the way:

MPLS Configuration on IOS Software (Makshman, Lobo) Very good this one
Traffic Engineering with MPLS (Osborne, Simha)
Interdomain Multicast Solutions Guide (Cisco Systems)

MPLS and VPN Architectures (Pepelnjak, Guichard)
MPLS and VPN Architectures Volume II (Pepelnjak, Guichard)

And for some references the two books Routing TCP/IP (Volume I and II) this is
a must in my opinion

Since I'm working a lot with VoIP at the moment I should go for the Voice
track, I saw that the InternetworkExpert material for voice haven't been
released yet, I've also heard that IPExpert has a very good material for
Voice, does anyone recommend them? (I was thinking to buy the CoD and the
workbooks).

Best regards,

Andy
CCIE R&S / SP 16778
