Re: No SP Dates Available

Of course. Personally, I wanted the SP first. But at that time, SP
workbooks were almost inexistent, so I started with the R&S. After I
cleared R&S, SP was easier, even if it took me three attempts to get
it.

Now facing the v4 changes, it might be easier to update (some)
knowledge rather than facing a serious change of tactics. It does make
sense to me and maybe to those that already have some practical
exposure to MPLS stuff.

Besides, Marko is right when saying that SP did not change too much.
It did not, in three years already.

No easy stride across really from R&S. Add to which some folks grumble at the SP training materials.
