RE: Does CCDE written recertify your CCIE?

You can be recertified for just under 4 years total. No need for a suspended
state. Plenty of people at work recertifying before the 2 year window roles
up. My boss just recertified taking the R&S exam, just like he did 18 months
ago. Which reminds me I need to recertify by November, it's been almost 4
years. R&S and then CCDE Beta, put me out almost 4 years.
