Re: Free CCIE study Resources - Free

I think by definition that qualifies me for the list, right?

But I still have time to "change my mind". See I'm arguably stronger with
Firewalls and VPNs than I used to be Routers and Switches. And IPS's and
ACS ain't nothing but a thang... and then they did me a favor and removed my
achilles heel that was the VPN Concentrator - again my weakest link.

So.... it just depends...

And I even wrote my own ASA Study sheet... with the fixuns...

And thanks to one of my last co-workers I learned a lot about those ole
pesky IPSec VPNs and somewhere along the way I met the DMVPNs and I managed
to sit through reading and practicing 3 whole Orange Cisco Press Books on
VPNs... well one was Green.
