A great many congrats John!

(Sorry to see that your thread got high-jacked by a troll - ignore that BS
(as we all should - they starve from lack of attention and move on) and
enjoy this major lifetime achievement!)

In early 2007 I went on a job interview, and I had forgotten how to subnet.
I
was so embarrassed that I decided to recertify my CCNP. Then I found out I
had to start over from CCNA to get it and I decided to go for CCIE. I took
Narbiks prep for CCIE written and then read both volumes of routing, a
switching book and then started on config guides and RFC's. I went through
IE's technology labs 3 times. I started on their multiprotocol labs in
November of 07. I failed my first attempt in January 08, but I knew that
was
coming. I came back and hit the racks hard for a few months and took itr
again in August. Made lots of stupid mistakes and spent to much time on one
issue, failed again. Came back more rack time a few mock labs. Passed on
Oct 18th. Thats it in a nutshell

    Thanks for all the help. It was close, real close, but I won this
round.
I
