Get certified on Arista!

[NetworkGroover]

 

An associate level certification on Arista is out!  Go look for it on Pearson Vue

Be forewarned - this is not a "learn basic networking" certification.  This is Arista-specific.  It's assumed you already have a basic knowledge of networking, from what I hear.

Professional and Expert level certifications are in the works!

If you take it - let me know your feedback.

any links to study guides etc?

[NetworkGroover]

No official study guides that I'm aware of, no.  Just the ACE program/class, config guide, etc.

good luck,  nah, you don't need luck,  you got this one in the bag.

Passed.  Kind of an interesting exam.  VERY Arista-specific (Like probably close to 100%) - similar to Brocade and their BCNE exam. Not going to be friendly to those who don't actively work with Arista gear or haven't taken the training program.

Well, OK, then. Great jaerb, Hamstray.

Now put your cert in your profile.

Naahhhhh I kinda like the obscurity and how it makes me look like a useless tool.  I can claim stupidity at any moment. 

EDIT - Actually, there ya go.

Awesome, do you have a link to the blueprint?

Nahhhh it's not nearly that developed yet.  I can tell you the content is pretty much all covered in the training program.  It's kind of wide and shallow.  If you know about Aboot, VMTracer, MLAG, a little VXLAN, scripting, TapAgg, and worked with the gear for a bit you'll be fine.

Actually, here's a good reference (towards the bottom):
