Let’s take a trip down memory lane. I last learned about OSPF basics when studying for my ICND 2 exam in 2008. How do I know and or remember this? Well, 1, it was when I earned my CCNA, my first-ever associate Cisco certification. The more plausible answer is that I kept all my notes […]
A few days ago, I passed DCUFD and earned my Cisco Certified Network Professional in Data Center! The test had some issues with it, but I think it was a fair certification to gauge if someone has been around Cisco’s Data Center product line. As with all tests, there are a few gotchas, but I

Just over five months ago, I was sitting in building three on the RTP Cisco campus. I was on my 4th CCIE Route/Switch lab attempt today, passing 640-916 and achieving Cisco’s associate certification in data center.

I just passed 642-611 and am now a CCIP. I will still post the MPLS blogs in my downtime while waiting for my books for CCIE Security.
When I started writing this blog post in Word, I thought I would throw all the MPLS acronyms into one blog post. I have realized it is way too long and would probably make your guys fall asleep, so I have decided to break it down by acronym. We are first going to look at
Over the last few months, I have been studying for the Cisco MPLS exam, and it has been a lot of fun. I already had an idea of MPLS from my ISCW study, but going into more depth and seeing how MPLS operates was a good experience. Over the next few days, I will post

I took 642-661 (Implementing BGP on Cisco Routers) and passed. This means I am one step closer to my next goal of CCIP before I attempt the big CCIE. The test was a hard test, it was what I expected, but some questions took me off guard. My study material was; Next up – 642-611 (Implementing
