About 3 years of routers. I've
designed/implemented/managed some fairly large
(70+nodes) framerelay networks and some smaller stuff.
I never touched the set IOS until about 3 months ago,
but I'd say a fairly proficient at it now.
My customer now has some pretty cool toys I get to
play with on a regular basis too. (LS-1010, Cat5500,
7507..etc).
