Yeah, so maybe that's precisely the point. They don't want guys to just get a bunch of stuff in a home lab and -presto- another CCIE comes out without ever having used the gear in a production environment in his life, and thereby cheapening the value of the cert. Perhaps they figure that if they require candidates to have a lot of hands-on experience with high-end gear, then most of the candidates will be employees of companies with large networks, which was the precise target demographic of the CCIE in the first place. It's too bad that they don't do this with the C/S. If they would test features available only on 7500's and up, that would mean that a greater percentage of C/S candidates would be actual ISP engineers, not lab-rats, which would be good for the program. > > > > > > > > > > > > >From: "Maurizio Moroni" > > >Reply-To: "Maurizio Moroni" > > >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > >Subject: New Voice CCIE [7:64620] > > >Date: Thu, 6 Mar 2003 16:12:11 GMT > > > > > >Hi Group, > > > > > >I would like to know what's your take on the new CCIE Voice Certification > > >Track > > >(http://www.cisco.com/warp/customer/625/ccie/ccie_program/whatsnew.html) > > > > > >Regards, > > >Maurizio > > _________________________________________________________________ > > MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.
