| I used mentorlabs and everything by Caslow, don't know about ccbootcamp - I'll try to find out. | |

| The lab exam study guide is really good. It was written by Rob Webber, CCIE6922. It contains a lot of the "gotchas" for the CCIE lab exam. If you have questions on it, you can email him at: rwebber@callisma.com.

| Mentor is a thing of the past. I'm going through ccie or ccbootcamps 20 ccie practice labs and finding all of them to be very helpful. I find it difficult to find curriculum to consolidate all the aspects
of the real lab exam but cciebootcamp does a good job of this. Price tag,$650. If there is something comparable, please email me and let me know! Money isn't an issue at this point.

| Cisco Press has now published their own version that reflects the one day lab. It lists at $75 and should be available everywhere now (saw it on Amazon.com).
Warning....the solutions for the sample labs are not in the book, but are suppose to be published on the website shortly.

| Yes, Karl Solie wrote the book for Cisco Press. I would NOT consider it a competing product. FYI
Check out:

| Of course you wouldn't consider it competing...all you have done is advertise on here.
Sorry for sounding harsh, but respect is gained by helping on here with technical answers not just ads.

| Hi! Thanks for your input! I was trying to add value and responding to a question which was placed by a person on this group. What's wrong with providing excellent customer service?
Did Karl Solie PERSONALLY respond to a post on his product or services? 
As far as technical knowledge and respect goes, I have TWO CCIE's (routing/switching and Security). Kinda speaks for itself, doesn't it?

| Hey let's cut the flaming. 
Brad, know anything about "All in one CCIE lab Study Guide" by Stephen Hutnik & Michael Saterlee? | |
| ironbrad 2002-01-22, 9:28 am |
| Yes, I used to recommend that book before Solie came out with his. Now I recommend Solie's book over Hutnik and Saterlee's book. Solie's book is more of an intermediate level book, while Hutnik's book is more entry-level. I think there's more information in Solie's book that's useful for the lab (IMHO). | |
| The Ghost 2002-01-22, 9:42 am |
| And which book are you refering to when you say Solie's again? | |
|
|
| The Ghost 2002-01-22, 10:13 am |
| Ah I see,thanks.
I already got Hutnik's book along with Coslow's... I don't need another book do I?  | |

| Ironbrad,..
The CCIE in security and R/S. Is that why there is the IPsec/IKE incorporated into
the lab scenarios? Is that part of the CCIE R/S lab curriculum? Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad it’s included but didn’t think of studying for the R/S lab.
Any idea what R/S CCIE # they're up to?

| kp,
Michael Brady, just got his CCIE last week, he was #8646.
Why wouldnt IPSEC be fair game for the R&S track? Just because it is a "security" IOS feature doesn't mean it's not on the R&S lab exam. I can't really say that it is, or isnt, you'd have to e-mail Cisco and see if they would give you more information on that. | |

[B]kp,

But didn't they start the CCIEs off at like 2000 or something to that? Meaning that there are actually only like 6000?
Should there be any concern that the CCIE will become less-valued? I don't believe so and regardless, I will continue to pursue it, but would like another opinion. | |

1024 is a kilohertz

| Hutnik/Saterlee's book is really a good beginner's guide for some basic practice lab scenarios. It's a good way to get started with a couple routers and a switch. I typically recommend this book for CCNA/CCNP students who need some scenarios to get hands-on practice with. | |

| Brad,
Since you have both ( r&s and security), which one is hard. I think security lab may be my first choice since it is built on r&s and hence a wholesome coverage. Appreciate your feedback.

| I would think to go for the R&S and switching first, since in the Security blueprint, any of that looks like fair game. Get the R&S, then go for the Security. If you have GOBS of experience in the security field, then you might be able to attack the security exam first...but 9 times out of ten, I'd recommend going the R&S route first. If you are interested in a forum that is focused on the CCIE Security track, you can check out: www.SecurityIE.com There is going to be a FREE security rack (with a PIX and ISDN simulator) available shortly. |
