Re: Which CCIE track next

Lol, a very interesting discussion. I would suggest skipping R&S and looking at a less generic track. Voice, security, or wireless ... IMO.

For me, wireless is the best choice... You can not wire the future and experts are always hard to find ... 5 billion new devices in the next 5 years? Yes we need wireless experts!

Wireless and SP go together IMO... ;) and all the major providers are converging the two ...

HTH and have a good week!
