have you taken that test yet?
:matrix:

Not yet... I need to review what GDOI is/does... since I haven't touched it since taking the VPN exam...

Thanks for the nagging. I've reloaded my VPN test bank and have gone halfway through the first chapter. Please do keep nagging so that I don't celebrate with 8 hours of video games...

It's not so bad, once you get someone else to do it.

Going through chapter 3 of the VPN book, all about certificates... it's amazing how all that was stuff I had to memorize 3 years ago. Now, it's all second nature to me. It's a good feeling to not just remember that's how it's done, but to remember how *I did it*!

And who uses IS-IS these days?

Need to put together an RFC for renaming that protocol,  these days IS-IS has bad connotations, and makes me think the network has been infiltrated by certain peoples.

Juniper also uses some parts of it for virtual chassis. Anyway, the JCNIS-ENT only touched on it briefly and it was all boring theory so not much of it sticked...

Next up, CCNP Route, before they start adding SDN  :)

June is CCIE R/S time.

I'm initiating the plan to move to Bangkok for 4-5 solid months of lab practice.

Please don't mistake my experience for intelligence.

Nuts.

Massive problem in India and now a ton of migration work means that I don't think I'll have enough time for study and test-taking before my CCNP expires.

Then again, I'm just retaking the VPN test, so it's not like I'd have an equivalent of a current CCNP-Security.

Therefore, I'm going to put the VPN book back on the shelf, let the NP expire, and concentrate back on my CISSP.

My old team lead had a famous quote perfect for this scenario.... You can get 3 days of work done in any 24 hour period....
