Re: CCDE certification

I know that having a CCIE isnt a must for CCDE. But to get the insight
,believe one needs a good hands on with most of the technologies.

What my question is , is the effort justified with the reward for CCDE ? So
far , have not seen any company specifically stating for CCDEs.

Also I am under the impression that CCDE is mostly product neutral and lots
of RFCs.

Are my assumptions valid ?

Any how , I am planning for the CCDE. Still reading . Have a great deal of
experience in SP environment , but not with all the technologies mentioned
in the blueprint.
