Re: TCL Script - reachability to BGP networks

On a somewhat related note, why does everyone advocate learning TCL for the
exam? I've been doing my studies with nothing but ping macros and find it
to be intuitive, easy to change, and fast to setup. Additionally, you can
use the same macros for both routers and switches.

Is there an advantage to TCL for CCIE purposes that I'm missing?
