Greetings,

I took my first shot at CCIE RS lab exam almost three years ago and did not
pass it. Since then I am working on L4-L7 stuff and kind of away from
traditional routing and switching world. Now I have decided to go back and
study again. My written is obviously expired. So that will be my first step
now. I am working in Networking for past 10 years. over the course of this
time, I have purchased and studied many cisco press books. Now I need to go
back to these books and start preparing for my written exam. Couple of days
ago, when I took my cisco press books from my shelf (all were dusty) and
started reading, I realize that I still know lots of stuff from them, and it
felt like I will be wasting lots of time going thru these books, I really
need some condensed form so I can quickly brush up my skills. Is any one
aware of any such books?

At my first lab attempt [almost three years ago] I bought IPexpert work book
(version 7 I believe) and its proctor guide. The material was great,
unfortunately I did not even complete first 5 labs before sitting in the
lab. I still have those books, I am wondering if those are still relavent or
should I buy new work books?

My current employer may be willing to pay for ccie bootcamp. I am wondering
if there are any good ones (for written and lab) in New York city?

many thanks
Wiz
