Introduction

Spent the last 10 years in the server world with some network knowledge and like most server engineers / MCSE / MCITP folk, i thought i knew it all. Yes sir i can ping and i can sub-net and i can do port forwarding, i even know all the well known ports, oh by the way did i tell you i can tracert -d and pathping? and don't make me buss out the angry-ip-scanner.
So i decided to tap into add a few Cisco certifications to the list, namely CCNA, ah yes the feared CCNA.
Obtained it in 2009 but man did it nearly skin me alive. I didn't know networking, i knew jack shit.
3 years after, looking back it, how did i ever think that was hard? and even more important, why did i stay in the server / Microsoft world for so long? Networking is so awesome!
Anyways, here i am, CCNP finishing up and preparing for CCIE R&S
This journey is going to be EPIC!

Alright so i'm finally finishing up CCNP with TSHOOT exam scheduled for June 15th and getting started the CCIE R&S track. This is going to be exciting
While searching online for information, study tips, rack equipment etc i came across many blogs from engineers pursuing their CCIE detailing what horrors they went through while studying / taking the lab, practical stuff, home labs and work experience. So why not, I might as well join the group =)
