| CCIE is not as easy as goal . First you have to do CCNA then CCNP & then you should go for CCIE . And for CCIE cisco recommends atleast 2 years of practical experience . Try to get practical experience as much as you can . Here is the link which will show you the whole information for CCIE .
www.cisco.com/go/ccie
Good luck | |

The way I am doing it is this.
After my MCSE
I did CCNA to get a firm start.
Then worked my way through CCNP
which was 4 tests
then got my CCDA which was another test
I am taking CCDP soon and then study for a month or 2 for the CCIE qualifying exam.
Then I will give myself 9 months to a year to complete the 1 day lab exam.
I have been doing this using self study until recently, I got a learning adantage account for my company with Global Knowledge
and have taken the Cisco Internetwork Design course.
Next mont I am doing the Building Cisco Scalable Internetworks, and before my lab test I plan to take a 2 day lab simulation course.
All the time practicing on a lab rack my manager and I have built consisting of
2500 series 2 2600 series routers a 2900 xl series switch and a couple cat 1900 series switches.
We are preparing to add a 3640 to the rack.
At work we use 3000 series gigabit switches
a 2500 dialup router a PIX 515 a 7200 series router with ATM and OC3 modules.
Also some of our sites have 1600 series access routers.
With all this I feel I will be lucky if I pass the first time I take it. | |

| You want to have two different approaches for preparing for your CCIE. The first approach needs to be focused on the written exam. You'll have to get a book or two and some practice questions. I've helped author a really good CCIE Written book: http://www.ccbootcamp.com/rswritexam.asp
The other approach will be geared towards the lab exam. You'll need some hardware at home, some practice lab scenarios, and some remote-rack time (for the ATM and Voice portions). Along with that, you'll also want a few more books (Halabi, Caslow, Solie, just to name a few).
Also, feel free to join up at:

Good luck! | |

| brad,
off topic , but

can you still configure a dmz host or would you
have to use
static mapping /
conduit - access list | |

when you pass the written join the groupstudy ccie lab list. the majority pass on 2nd, 3rd attempts.
i'm now sufficently scared that i think i'll try next spring. you have 18mo to make the 1st attempt than 1 year between additional attempts.
with the 1 day lab speed and accuracy are everything
and of course babbleing config to your wife in your sleep.
i am now arranging to buy a lab from someone to just passed on the fourth attempt. | |

| CCIE. What I understand, this is the king of all exams ever created and faced in the world. As i have understood only 2400 people worldwide have reached this certification | |

| 1024 is the lab
1025 is the first ccie
and 8791 was given within the last couple of days
so ... roughly 7767 #'s given out but ... not all are active.  | |
