Re: OT - After SDN, does CCIE still make senese ?

I just want to say something to think about a hint the old CCIE's and the
old Microsoft certified where are they working now ?! and why we all know
that with the newest years things is becoming hard so what I mean the new
certified is stronger and learns more than old guys but also the old guys
who developed the materials to the new guys to study that large scope so
nothing difference but with full respect the old days was harder to gain
like right now so think this way and I just learned one thing from the guys
that they are multiple CCIE nothing is easy and as much you spend the time
you will gain No Pain No Gain and we should not forget Scott Morris the
person who inspire us all the man says Knowledge is power be evil study
hard. and again to pass the CCIE any path you are not mastering every thing
what I mean if you are going for R&S you know that you must master the L2 &
routing protocols this is the flavor of this path if for SP you should
master the MPLS & BGP AFI's else you should know how to solve the scenario
which is given in question and most of the time using the DOC-CD so I think
you wont understand SDN if you don't know how OSPF works.

I remember once I started to study I print the CCIE blue print and kept
looking for it for 6 hours just sitting and looking to it and saying inside
my mind how can a human hold all this in his mind how come no way and kept
feeling no way to pass, and really after I am cleared actually sitting
inside the lab is more easier than sitting for CCNA or CCNP but its the
long way ;)

also, maybe I love the old school where I learned that* *hard way is better
to be stronger and this is my own opinion.

Hope my very big large mail helps you found what you are seeking and hope
to all of people here success and enjoying the success in their life.

Thanks,
Monsef
