Hi all

8 years dream and 5 years hard work comes true. Took my lab yesterday and just saw that I have cleared it.

Thanks to all for your support.

With regards

Thank you. This is my 3rd attempt and it was quite challenging. We need to be strong in troubleshooting.

Best of luck.

Congratulations Kings,

Anyone who's been on this site for more than a week knows you are more deserving of this achievement than anyone else.

How does it feel to wake up and not having to go straight to labbing?

Enjoy your success.

Nic

I don't know what to do now suddenly :-)

I am so much used to open my laptop as soon I wake up...

VPN, will have more TS which we should focus.

Kings, very similar to the one I failed last year in RTP. But I am preparing hard for this try.

Muffin, I don't think I will be going after a second CCIE cert at this point in time. The lab is changing soon and I have a full plate at work. I still enjoy participating in this forum. I learn a lot.

For anyone curious about how many CCIE numbers are handed out in ten years' time, I got my number on July 8, 2002.

Best of luck, Kings, in whatever you do. This is a surreal time for you. Savor it!

Hi Kings,

Congrats for passing the lab! Which workbook did you used? Do you have recommended reading list? Im currently planning to start my 2nd CCIE Security.

Thanks
